Well...

* pyephem seems to be borrowing libastro codes from XEphem.

  From: http://rhodesmill.org/pyephem/
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You can learn more about and download the wonderful XEphem application
from which PyEphem derives its computation engine;
it has long been written and maintained by Elwood Charles Downey.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
  I took the diff between xephem-3.7.3/libastro/ in
  http://www.clearskyinstitute.com/xephem/xephem-3.7.3.tar.gz and
  pyephem-3.7.2.3/libastro-3.7.2, and
  actually the diff is very small (i.e. codes are almost same)

* XEphem license is NO for Fedora:
  http://www.clearskyinstitute.com/xephem/download.html

Would you check if license of libastro part is really okay for
Fedora?
