Description Paul Wouters 2013-08-30 15:49:51 UTC
IDEA's patent expired, and this is now allowed in Fedora. eg see  bug 789762 where it has been fixed for openssl. gnupg also supports IDEA now.

Comment 1 Thomas Moschny 2013-08-30 17:29:59 UTC
I'd like to get the OK from Fedora legal.

Comment 2 Tom "spot" Callaway 2013-09-03 13:51:00 UTC
Yeah, IDEA is okay to re-enable now.
