Description T.C. Hollingsworth 2013-08-23 04:29:28 UTC

This package contains binary files that are typically excuted by the Flash
player or another similar program.

These files are not permitted in Fedora. [1]  Everything we produce needs to
be built from source. [2]

The offending file(s) shipped in this package are:
/usr/share/mojomojo/root/static/flash/swfupload.swf
/usr/share/mojomojo/root/static/flash/swfupload_f8.swf
/usr/share/mojomojo/root/static/flash/swfupload_f9.swf

If these files are just a fallback for something that is now supported by modern
web standards like the HTML5 <video> element, please just remove the binaries.

If removing these files would seriously cripple your application, please let me
know so we can figure out a solution.

If you have any questions, please shout.  Thanks!

Comment 1 Iain Arnell 2013-09-20 16:38:41 UTC

swfupload can easily be removed, but I'm unable to rebuild at the minute due to a change in perl-Encode that is causing test failures.
