Suggested patch

Description of problem:
The readline package in rawhide will be soon updated to new 6.0 release which changes the license to GPLv3+. As fityk is GPLv2, it should be built with the older readline (packaged in compat-readline5) to avoid licensing incompatibility or switched to libedit which is compatible with GPLv3, but doesn't support UTF-8.

Comment 1 Marcin Wojdyr 2009-07-14 20:09:51 UTC
the latest upstream version of fityk is GPLv2+, so updating to the latest version will fix this issue.

Comment 2 Marcin Wojdyr 2009-08-19 12:40:06 UTC
updating to 0.8.8 solved this problem
