Source patch

To simplify licensing apparently without any loss of functionality, js could be built with libedit instead of readline, patches attached.

Specfile patch

Note that this also moves %configure from %prep to %build which is a more appropriate section for it.

Hello. Thanks for patch. Does it have any disadvantages and incompatibilities? I think it should be discussed in devel ML first.

Comment 3 Ville Skyttä 2012-11-14 16:18:23 UTC
I'm not aware of any. And given that this affects only /usr/bin/js which I believe is a very rarely used tool, I don't think it's necessary to discuss it anywhere first. But feel free if you feel like it...

Comment 4 Pavel Alexeev 2012-11-18 16:08:34 UTC
Ok, it built for rawhide. Thanks.
