It is a leaf package. Since there might be differing opinions on this, if you want to a conclusive answer, feel free to file a ticket with FESco. Thats what I do in case of a dispute or when I want a second opinion. Rahul -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
