Well, i wouldn't call a software that counts serverside downloads of FOSS software and gives based on that downloads/installations, a popularity suggestion in packagekit, spyware. There's nothing at all that gets sent out of your box. Remind, i'm not speaking of exactly popcon. I spoke about something in the server, just counting the download/installation (not even unique installations via some hash or whatever) and a packagekit extension that shows the count or something like stars or whatever. So, it has to be on by default. -- LG Thomas Dubium sapientiae initium -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
