That probably means you need to package "firmware" building tools in fedora and use them to build the "firmware" source in the "firmware" package. And we may have been lax on the subject in the past for games but as the OP message shows it's a quick path to shipping pre-built closed java or.Net binaries and effectively having a non-free system. Bootstrapping may be needed as in every language we've merged. -- Nicolas Mailhot -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
