Of course if it build for fedora with nearly no work, so good :-) (after all, communication across border is the OSC motto :-). I'l subscribed often to upstream mailing lists. The OBS is a really great thing openSUSE can offer to others. I try to make it more popular. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The simpler for the user should be to have it in the help file, but a man page would be fine also. thanks jdd -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Information about package maintenance is not in a file in the package -- it is stored in the package metadata, for example look at "zypper info vdfuse". For the package changelog look at "rpm -q --changelog vdfuse" or the "Change Log" tab in YaST. This is how it is for all packages. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I'm the one who maintains vdfuse, my email is in the rpm file (in the changelog). Where else would you like it?

I will see about getting it building for Fedora (perhaps with this patch), what do you think Michal? Is it OK to enable latest Fedora repo in VirtualBox_backports?

yes feel free to enable it (my suggestion is : add Fedora repo with disabled state by default and enable it only for vdfuse package) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
