[Bug 476] Review request: blender-freeworld - Additional parts of blender not distributed in Fedora

http://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=476 --- Comment #39 from NicolasChauvet <kwizart(a)gmail.com&gt; 2009-06-30 09:15:57 --- (In reply to comment #38) As we have technical reasons not to link libraries statically. removing out the internal dependencies from the tarball is the direct consequence of that it is safe to do so. And there will be no lazy possibility to revert back to the internal library. (understand, bFTGL is aimed to kick out). So the reason isn't about Legal, It is technical, and it's not covered in Fedora guidelines over saying that packagers have to use their own judgement. Why are we talking about a general idea there ? I'm talking about the blender case where some dependencies are there from years despite a system version exists. Furthermore, in the recent blender packaging history in Fedora, the tarball was shamelessly redistributing patented sources code (libmp3lame/x264), so It will be best to have the source tarball checked twice than once, specially has we don't need theres sources code for other reason in RPMFusion. Comparing the original source tarball over the reduced size blender tarball will have to be done preliminarily as any blender version bump. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
