The wrong FSF address in perle-serial.c is directly from the upstream sources. Kernel modules are unstripped (or they wouldn't load otherwise). The not capitalized warning applies to a string that's generated from a macro. The documentation is in the -common package. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
