Description: PCSX2 is an open source Playstation 2 emulator. It requires a dump
of a real Playstation 2 BIOS, which is not included.

Why this package is not eligible to be included in Fedora: Fedora does not
allow emulators

The output rpmlint gives on both the source and binary packages:

$ rpmlint pcsx2-1.0-2.fc16.src.rpm

no man page available]

This is my first RPM fusion package. It is built with the help of a packager on
fedora forums - I am a packaging novice - and then maintained by me on the
fedora forum for about a year]

I am seeking a sponsor.
