At the time of this writing libconfuse-2.5-3 is the newest package in F-8 and rawhide. http://www.nongnu.org/confuse/ says that the new libconfuse-2.6 release is to be found at http://bzero.se/confuse/ instead of at http://download.savannah.nongnu.org/releases/confuse/ (for some reason).
Hrm... Two issues with the new version... 1) it doesn't actually build for me 2) the license changed The first is definitely a problem. At a glance, looks like probably just a compiler flag that needs tweaking so we don't treat warnings as errors. The second just needs a bit of research to make sure the new license conditions are okay for Fedora.

Created attachment 292382 [details] Apply patch in F-8/ directory: libconfuse-2.6-0.2 This is how I would do it... and it seems to build: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=362349 I have not checked that any of the libconfuse dependencies work with this package, though.
ISC appears to be the correct value for the License: field, and its just fine with legal. Committing and building for rawhide shortly...
Built for rawhide, building for F-8 now.
