Thoses part are rather new, That would be better to add them so that
will be part of the QA and the review.
I am trying to contact the creator of those patches and see if he can
give some more info on Python 2.6 and XBMC. I am not aware of a current
pending review for XBMC?

Can you explain what this means in terms of building XBMC with DVD support?

so nor XBMC from RPMFusion, but this feature shouldn't be needed by

I wouldn't miss faac support but it seems a shame as we have it in
