Description Doug Chapman 2009-03-10 15:51:00 UTC 
Description of problem:
The elilo srpm contains the file fpswa.efi.  According to the license at:
http://www.redhat.com/licenses/thirdparty/intel_fpswa.html

this file probably should not be distributed as part of Fedora.  Since this file is only used to allow for a newer floating point trap handler than what is in firmware it is not critical to be included.  Also, since the version shipped with Fedora is from 2004 it is likely that most systems have something newer in firmware anyway.
