IMO 12 hours is much too little time for doing something which appears to be directly against the packaging guidelines, especially considering that today is a holiday in lots of countries and probably considerably less people than usual are reading their FE mail. Patience, please. I'm not saying that this case is not acceptable for inclusion, but it sounds somewhat like being against the intended purpose or the "spirit" of that rule. I guess it depends on exactly how optional those files are, how easy it is to properly install/remove them without them being rpm-packaged, and whether anyone would have any complaints about their inclusion if they'd be part of the upstream tarball which also contains the actual game. (There are some examples in the repo that I think would be better off handled by end users themselves and not packaged, so one should apply criticism when/if looking for previous examples. One example are the huge optional content blobs for uqm, of which only a subset changes between releases which can't be sanely handled in the current uqm-content package. But the uqm case predates the guideline...) -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
