Manufacturers will tell you what hardware to use. Very few manufacturers

So, if it takes the death of your floppy drive to

No. Users who want to tweak their system to the point of shaving a few
seconds off their boot times
Below is a proposed specfile for the floppy case. (Analog joystick would be
very similar.) I haven't tested the package for functionality yet, but did
test it with rpmbuild and rpmlint. Is this what we want? Is this ready
for a formal review?
Name: floppy-support

Hey, all. So, I'm looking at packaging tt-rss - an RSS reader

server. It became rapidly clear that it's a landmine of bundled PHP
libraries and snippets and uncertain licensing. I'm unsure which of the
things it bundles would be lik
Speaking about prototype and scriptaculous, I am sure that they are
bundled also in Rails and if there are some Rails applications packaged,
they will be included also in them. However I am not sure if they should
be packaged separately or just copylibs.
