As Dridi mentioned, this is based on IntelliJ IDEA (or however it's capitalized). It uses some custom build scripts to build, internally uses gradle to actually build those android projects...It's a mess on top of mess. Yes, people could package it. But it would take some serious effort and is definitely not a one-man-job. Not to mention maintaining it afterwards. We have enough packaged and unmaintained software in Java world as it is... As for rpmfusion: rpmfusion has *identical* guidelines to Fedora. Only difference is that they let in patented stuff (more or less). You can't package something with unclear licensing or redistribution problems in rpmfusion either. > Thank you very much. Yeah, I don't think you like my answer but...
