I think Thomas 'community' packages refered to packages with stuff Red Hat or anyone other US company for various reasons can't include in the default package. As for non-lwz gif, didn't the lwz patent expire some months ago? Anyway we have a MNG decoder in GStreamer already so no need for cruddy gifs :) Christian
