Description:
Use this package to install the packages required to run vmware locally.
This package does not include the free vmware-server or vmware-server-console
package itself. They can be obtained from the vmware website.
Can't be in Fedora:
- it's a meta package
- it enables use of non fedora software
- the proper packaging should really be done by the upstream author.
- the upstream is not open source
- the upstream do not support the fedora distribution
- FESCO discussed it recently, and voted that helper packages for third party
apps shall be blocked from Fedora:

=====
So, do we want to allow helper packages like this in RPM Fusion ?
Note it does not Require: any packages external to Fedora/RPM Fusion, nor does
it attempt to download them.
Others have mentioned that other external no source apps might include skype
etc, that could receive similar RPM Fusion packaging assistance ?

yet anothers things to do: Appstream, comps and remix
by Sérgio Basto
Hello,
Adam Williamson wrote today in reply of one question (made by me) :
"Hmm, actually, maybe it currently doesn't, but it definitely has
before:
http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/updates/testing/20/x86_64/co
mps.xml
But basically, any repo can have comps data and dnf will respect it;
you can set up an external repo with comps data that lists some package
from that repo as being in the `standard` group, for instance, and when
it installs the `standard` group, dnf will include that package. AFAIK
this has always been intended to work. I'm not sure how often it gets
tested. "
Goggled and found http://rpmfusion.org/comps , so maybe we should add
rpmfusion-comps repo (to archive) , in
https://github.com/rpmfusion-infra/rpmfusion-comps/
like fedora-comps , btw comps was talked here in rpmfusion in 2007 [1]
, and if we need generate comps.xml , we also may talk in Appstream ,
we need generate something isn't it ? And since remxis depends on
comps.xml (If I am correct), also talk about RPMFusion remixs, not
propose generate the remixs , but at least update remix specs [2], and
be able do remix in a local machine .
About appstream [3], can I add/update the missing packages for Fedora
23 ? and close the review request after that?
Cheers,

Aegisub is a free, cross-platform open source tool for creating and
modifying subtitles. Aegisub makes it quick and easy to time
