Please don't interpret something in my postings. > Simon, can you talk to upstream and ask him about renaming his package? I spoke with upstream (of the browser). He knows there is another software called 'surf', but he doesn't want to rename his project. It doesn't matter to me, what's the name of the package is, so I have no problem with a renaming in Fedora, but I can't see a reason for this. The current situation is that surf is fedora incompatible. Perhaps it will never be fedora compatible, but you say I have to rename it to $(whatever), because a 3rd party repo could package surf. Sorry but this argumentation doesn't look sane to me and I can't find this kind of argumentation in the guidelines. IMHO the fact that this isn't compatible licensed for more than 16 years without amendment would disqualify surf (not the browser) for the pkgname surf in fedora. surf (the webbrowser) in other OS: Archlinux: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=30009 -> surf!
