Summary: Review Request: texlive - Binaries for the TeX formatting system https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=242416 ------- Additional Comments From jnovy@xxxxxxxxxx 2007-08-29 01:54 EST ------- (In reply to comment #45) > The licenses issues are blockers, Yes, they are, but in the current state of TeXLive packages, which are now in functional state, we should focus on F8 inclusion, because feature freeze was yesterday and we can remove stuff with inappropriate licensing during the last testing period. If TeXLive is not included now into Fedora, there will be *no* TeXLive in it, making F8 terribly poor in comparison with other distros, such as Mandriva or SuSE, where texlive is already included. These license problems can really be resolved after inclusion. > and I also think that > the projects I list in Comment #20 under > > Separate projects > ----------------- > > should not be shipped if they weren't part of tetex previously. Why? One of the criteria needed for TeXLive to be accepted is that it should substitute functionality of tetex, what it does, but why to limit the Fedora TeXLive only to a functionality in obsolete teTeX? This makes no sense to me. > > And for those that were part of tetex, maybe their subpackage name > shouldn't be prefixed by texlive if they have their own subpackage > (like xdvi). > I can add a virtual provides for those packages, but I don't think it's a good idea to remove the texlive- prefix as users should know it is not comming from, say xdvi upstream, but from TeXLive distribution so that it could differ from the official upstream of the projects as the problems users could face should be reportrd to TeXLive upstream. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/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
