Why do you think that make it eligible for RPM Fusion free section ?
Maybe the question was more aimed at the reporter than to me. But since I
accepted it in my review, maybe I should motivate how *I* reasoned:
According to
http://rpmfusion.org/Contributors#Your_package_gets_approved there
are two criteria for a package to be eligible for the free section:
1) Open Source Software (as defined by the Fedora Licensing Guidelines)
2) the Fedora project cannot ship due to other reasons
Winetricks is licenced under LGPLv2+, which meets requirement 1.
According to
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Packages_which_are_no...
a "software which downloads code bundles from the internet in order to be
functional or useful is not acceptable for inclusion in Fedora". Doing that is
the very purpose of winetricks. So there is an "other reason" meeting criteria
2.
Isn't there something wrong in this reasoning?
