Summary: Review Request: em8300(-kmod) - Hollywood+/DXR3 hardware MPEG decoder drivers and tools https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=189400 dwmw2@xxxxxxxxxx changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |davej@xxxxxxxxxx, | |dwmw2@xxxxxxxxxx ------- Additional Comments From dwmw2@xxxxxxxxxx 2006-07-23 05:54 EST ------- If the kernel module has a suitable licence for FC5, then it presumably has a suitable licence for being included directly in the kernel. Thus, the correct approach would be to get the support into the upstream kernel and therefore into our base kernel package, rather than having a separate kmod package for it. I strongly believe we should veto _all_ kmod packages in Core and Extras. The only reason for kernel support not being upstream is because it's not acceptable there.... which means it probably shouldn't be acceptable to us either. And if it _is_ acceptable to us but isn't upstream for some reason, then we can consider adding it to the kernel package properly. In certain exceptional cases. You should file a separate bug (with patch) for that. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
