  URL: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/TeXLive
  URL: http://www.linux.cz/mailman/listinfo/texlive

  Why not in Fedora: Incorporation into an official Fedora release is held up pending legal audit of the 3000-odd packages, which may not terminate till 2111. TeXLive themselves are scrupulous about licensing so it's really redundant but lawyers are lawyers.

Package Requests

.Use this page to post a request for a packages that can't go to Fedora but would be nice to have in the RPM Fusion repository. For update requests or package enhancements use bugzilla please.

/!\ Important Note: Package request that don't give a good reason why the package cannot go to Fedora will get removed from this list immediately without further notice; if you are unsure if a package is suitable for Fedora then submit it to Fedora Wishlist; alternatively ask Fedora or RPM Fusion contributors for advice!

Note, there is no guarantee that package will be built, but it serves as a basis for maintainers looking for ideas on what to package next. But that doesn't happen very often, as you can guess from the length of this list. The best way to get a package into RPM Fusion quickly is to join RPM Fusion and maintaining the package yourself.

Please also note that these packages have not undergone license reviews. It is possible that a package in this list might have strict license restrictions that disallow the sort of redistribution that RPM Fusion would entail.

Please edit this page to add a new request ensuring the layout is maintained. For example: 

 Request: foo
  Summary: What does this program do ? What features ?
  URL: http://www.exemple.org
  Why not in Fedora :
  Notes:
Thx

Requests will be removed where an RPM already exists in Fedora or RPM Fusion itself.

  URL: http://altosdesign.com/aacgain/
  Why not in Fedora: Same reason mp3gain is not eligible; fear of patents. And it requires packages only available in rpm fusion.

  F14 src rpm at http://rpm.globe-nl.net/fedora/release/14/source/SRPMS/aacgain-1.8-1.fc14.src.rpm can be built (rpmbuild)
  and installed without issues on F20.  It appears to work without problems.
  Update: on http://aacgain.altosdesign.com/ , at end of the page, we can read "source code for AACGain is hosted in the sourceforge cvs repository as part of the mp3gain project, in the aacgain module http://mp3gain.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/mp3gain/aacgain/. " so maybe could be part of mp3gain ...

 Request: Arista Transcoder
  Summary: A simple preset-based transcoder for the GNOME Desktop and a small script for terminal-based transcoding. Settings are chosen based on output device and quality preset.

  Notes: Easy to build.

 Request: ATI Stream SDK
  Summary: An SDK for OpenCL on ATI cards.
  URL: http://developer.amd.com/gpu/ATIStreamSDK/Pages/default.aspx

 Request: audacious-plugins-oss
  Summary: OSS part of audacious-plugins which is not included in Fedora's audacious-plugins

 Request: Bitwig Studio
  Summary: Bitwig Studio is a dynamic software solution for music creation and performance. 
  URL: http://www.bitwig.com
  Why not in Fedora : Fedora does not support proprietary software.
  Notes: RPM packages available on https://mega.co.nz/#F!AIYzXT6R!u_XfolVkr7Nv1A_ZyrqvMw. It´s easier for users to set up a repo to stay up to date, than searching for a package on the web/forum etc. which is up to date.

 Request: baloo-libs-freeworld
  Summary: The KDE4 new indexing system
  URL: http://www.kde.org
  Why not in Fedora: Baloo can be linked against FFMPEG, and, if built that way, can index more information about audio and video files. FFMPEG is patent encumbered, and so the Baloo copy in Fedora has FFMPEG integration disabled.

 Request: bomi-player
  Summary:bomi-player (formerly known as CMPlayer) is a multimedia player which is convenient and easy to use. It's, currently the only GUI available for mpv, outside the OSC, which is currently broken.

 Request: cdrtools
  Summary: CD, DVD and BluRay recording software
  URL: http://cdrecord.berlios.de/private/cdrecord.html
  Why not in Fedora: Incompatibility between CDDL and GPL in the resulting binaries; it did not pass legal review. It cannot be packaged in RPMFusion as well. Upstream allows and encourages free redistribution.
  Notes: This package should be packaged as an alternative for cdrkit.

 Request: cairo (with patches to support cleartype filtering)
  Summary: A vector graphics library
  URL: http://cairographics.org
  Why not in Fedora: Patent issues regarding cleartype filtering
  Notes: this package should be part of a logical group of other patched packages supporting better subpixel rendering in Fedora, to bring up the font rendering to the level of Ubuntu, Windows XP/Vista and MacOS/X. These packages are: cairo, freetype, fontconfig, libXft (and maybe pixman, this should be checked). Source packages already exist with patches supporting these features for all the above packages at: ftp://brebs.me.uk/fedora/10/. Further info: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/archive/index.php/t-186789.html

 Request: Catalyst (fglrx) Driver
  Summary: AMD's Linux driver for Radeon HD 2000/3000/4000 series hardware.
  URL: http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/catalyst126legacyproducts.aspx
  Why not in Fedora: Same reason original Catalyst is not eligible; property software, not open source license.
  Notes: Not certain that AMD will continue to give support for this legacy driver in future.

 Request: cinelerra-cv
  Summary: One of the best video edition tools around
  URL: http://cinelerra-cv.org/
  Why not in Fedora: Well, this package uses a lot of codecs available in livna/rpmfusion, so, that's why.
  Notes: Review Request at https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=118
  We at cinelerra-cv.org have no control/influence over cinelerra.org and viceversa.
  cinelerra-cv.org is a open community (CV: Community Version), rather than a close group. 

 Request: clamdrib
  Summary: Adds clamav checking to Thunderbird
  URL: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/6663
  Why not in Fedora: No method to contact original developer, no updates since March 2008.
  Notes: Changing install.rtf, doesn't help it work in latest T\B 3.0b4
 Status appears in message toolbar, but no details if message clean\infected.

 Request: dahdi-linux
  Summary: Digium Asterisk Hardware Device Interface (DAHDI) linux kernel modules, firmware and documentation
  Why not in Fedora: While Fedora does package dahdi-tools, dahdi-linux contains kernel modules (and firmware)
  that are not part of the main kernel tree, and are not included in Fedora. Note that there is no need to package
  dahdi-tools as this would be redundant. The RPMFusion compatible spec files that I use currently are here:
  http://messinet.com/rpms/browser/dahdi-linux/dahdi-linux.spec
  http://messinet.com/rpms/browser/dahdi-linux-kmod/dahdi-linux-kmod.spec

 Request: DXX-Rebirth
  Summary: This is a Source Port of the Descent and Descent 2 Engines.
  URL: http://www.dxx-rebirth.com/
  Why not in Fedora: Parallax License only allows non-commercial use of the source (http://dxx-rebirth.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/dxx-rebirth/trunk/d1x-rebirth/COPYING.txt?view=markup)

 Request: easyMP3Gain
  Summary: A GUI for mp3Gain, aacGain, and vorbisGain to make gaining audio files just as easy as in windows
  URL: http://sourceforge.net/projects/easymp3gain
  Why not in Fedora: mp3Gain isn't in Fedora either, so it's only natural that a GUI for it wouldn't be either.
  Notes: The project page has an RPM that already installs nicely into F10 and Rawhide. It would also be helpful to include aacGain in RPMFusion for completion.

 Request: FASTA
  Summary: The FASTA programs find regions of local or global (new) similarity between Protein or DNA sequences
  URL: http://fasta.bioch.virginia.edu/fasta_www2/fasta_down.shtml

 Request: fontconfig (with updated configuration to make use of available cleartype rendering and bytecode interpreter features)
  Summary: Font configuration and customization library
  URL: http://fontconfig.org
  Why not in Fedora: Because the default packages do not provide these features.
  Notes: this package should be part of a logical group of other patched packages supporting better subpixel rendering in Fedora, to bring up the font rendering to the level of Ubuntu, Windows XP/Vista and MacOS/X. These packages are: cairo, freetype, fontconfig, libXft (and maybe pixman, this should be checked).

  Why not in Fedora : OpenSSL ECC requirement
  Notes: Thx

 Request: netperf
  Summary: Network performance/benchmarking with the ability to benchmark many different protocols
  URL: http://www.netperf.org/netperf/NetperfPage.html

 Request: nvidia-detect
  Summary: A utility to detect Nvidia graphics cards
  URL: http://elrepo.org/tiki/nvidia-detect
  Why not in Fedora: Related to proprietary software. Actually it could go in Fedora, as the utility itself contains no proprietary code, only it makes more sense to have all related packages in the same repo, I believe.

 Request: nVidia proprietary drivers with kmod for RHEL6
  Summary: 3d accelleration for nouveau drivers still isn't supported in RHEL6.
  URL:
  Why not in Fedora : RHEL request (not in RHEL because not FOSS).

 Request: opal
  Summary: Open Phone Abstraction Library, implementation of the ITU H.323
           teleconferencing protocol, and successor of the openh323 library.
  URL:     http://www.opalvoip.org/
  Why not in Fedora: It is available in fedora but with disabled support for x264 and ffmpeg, thus lacking H.264 and
           all other MPEG-based video conferencing abilities. This results in ekiga being very limited
           with the codecs offered for use to the end-user.
  Notes:   I've got self-modified .spec file for opal-3.6.8-1 based on the one from Fedora 12 and expected to be built
           against older version of x264 that was available as a package from ATrpms. There were reported problems with
           opal linking against latest versions of x264, but now (as of 2011/07/05) it seems that there are patches
           available at ekiga's bugzilla (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=596006#c24) that solve the case.
           ATM I'm in process of patching opal spec file using SRPMS from Fedora 15 as a base, and intend to use x264-devel
           package from RPMFusion as a dependency. Goind to post the spec for review request as soon as would done with it.

 Request: OpenSSL with Elliptic Curve, IDEA, MDC-2, RC5 crypto algorithms

 Request: Opera
  Summary: A popular web browser and Internet suite.
  URL: http://www.opera.com/
  Why not in Fedora: nonfree
  Notes: Opera distributes both, tarball archives and rpms for Fedora and EPEL on their download pages (e.g. http://www.opera.com/browser/download/?os=linux-i386&ver=9.63&local=y for i386). Also, they welcome if anyone wants to mirror their packages (http://www.opera.com/download/mirrors/), but it doesn't say anything about if they allow repackaging and such.

 Request: Pacemaker (--with stonithd), cluster-glue, cluster-glue-libs, crmsh
  Summary: Pacemaker clustering package (with plugin support).
  URL: http://clusterlabs.org/wiki/Pacemaker

 Request: pianobar
  Summary: Command-line Pandora Radio Client
  URL: http://6xq.net/projects/pianobar/
  Why not in Fedora: Depends on media codecs banned from Fedora, which are already in RPM Fusion. Also, the fact that it is an unauthorized client to a commercial service may go against some Fedora legal policy.
  Notes: Obviously you would also have to include its dependency libpiano.

  Why not in Fedora: Skype is free, but proprietary and thus closed source. They have been engaged in censorship in China, preferred Intel users etc.

  Summary: provide Xorg 3D driver for VIA Chrome9/UniChrome
  URL: http://linux.via.com.tw/support/downloadFiles.action, choose CN896, Ubuntu 8.10, link: Unified GFX driver Ver 85a-44597
  Why not in Fedora: restricted driver
  Notes: Although only available for Ubuntu 8.10, they also work for Fedora. Confirmed for HP 2133, see http://hp2133.umsw.de, section 11b. Issues with SELinux, also with OpenGL and RandR (both only when using compiz). 2D driver works better with RandR but is known to cause system freezes. Options/switches for xorg.conf not well documented. 3D driver needs VIA Chrome9 drm module, 2D may run without it, thus poor performance playing videos etc.

 Request: Veejay

 Request: libdvdcss
  Summary: A library for accessing and unscrambling DVDs encrypted with the Content Scramble System (CSS)
  URL: http://www.videolan.org/developers/libdvdcss.html

The long story and all the arguments for and against shipping it can be found in the mailing lists archives.

  Livna and Freshrpms will provide libdvdcss for the forseeable future.

 Request: java-1.6.0-sun|java-1.7.0-oracle
  Summary: Sun JDK Runtime Environment
  URL: http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
  Notes: self-build instructions for the latest Sun JDK at http://www.city-fan.org/tips/SunJava6OnFedora
  Why not in RPM Fusion: restrictions on redistribution; the license at the time of writing can be found at:
    http://java.sun.com/javase/6/jdk-6u18-license.txt

      (iii) you do not distribute additional software intended to supersede any component(s) of the Redistributables
        (this would include free Java implementations such as are already included in Fedora)
      (vi) you agree to defend and indemnify Sun and its licensors from and against any damages, costs, liabilities,
      settlement amounts and/or expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with any claim, lawsuit
      or action by any third party that arises or results from the use or distribution of any and all Programs and/or
      Software
        (nobody at RPM Fusion is likely to agree to that)
