Could do that, but I think we should ask FPC for a general exception. waf is intended to be bundled, and its api changes from time to time. waf's upstream even officially discourages installing it system-wide (and has removed the installation routine in later releases). Some people might find an rpm handy nevertheless, that's why we still package it, while e.g. Debian has stopped packaging it. Forcing our package maintainers to use system's waf (which might be a on different version than that embedded in their source tars) might put extra burden on them and is probably not worth the effort - we are talking about a build system, not a run-time lib. - Thomas -- Thomas Moschny <thomas.moschny@xxxxxxxxx> -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
