... and suddenly the bug was added to the list...

I have a hard time making the package sispmctl work on FC16, for a GEMBIRD SiS-PM. See also http://sispmctl.sourceforge.net/ 

My main problems: 
- there is no rpm available at the moment
- it is incompatible (so it seems) with the libusb version on FC16 
- libusb seems to be poorly maintained (there is also libsubx now) 

Is there someone who can produce an rpm package that allows a simple installation of this package? 

If I'm using the wrong mailing list, could you please indicate where I should post my request? 

Thank you!!

I've added it to the package wishlist at:
 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_maintainers_wishlist

If you're interested in packaging it for Fedora yourself, see:

Closing this as 'deferred' for now until a volunteer picks it up.
