I refuse to become upstream for 2 libraries backporting Why do you need a permission? There is a controversy here, so just use the internal libs, and wait for somebody to report the issue to turn to FESCO ruling, and in the mean time just do what you think is best. If FESCO disagree with you then orphan them, but wait for that to happen. I can't find on the wiki, but there was some guidance on how to cope with disagreement like this one, and basically it is bring the issue on the mailing list (you've done it without success in getting an agreement), and otherwise wait for somebody to report to FESCO for FESCO ruling. It should be in http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/Policy but I can't find it. -- Pat -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
