If its not linux native and If you can get it to compile under fedora using the cross-compiling tools which are available great... if you can't.. then its a case by case basis. My question to you is, how do you plan to maintain freedos? Since you can't use the normal fedora buildsystem to incorporate patches.. whats you plan as the maintainer if functionality problems arise? If freedos is viewed as dosemu content, then I could certainly make the argument that its like game levels for a game and is permissible content. But I would not be particularly thrilled to see that definition of permissible content extented to allow a collection dos executable software sitting in the fedora tree that works on top of the freedos kernel. I think we have to be reasonable and limit what fedora provides to what is required to get a minimal dos environment and let users pull additional dos executables from sources other than Fedora. -jef -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
