Created attachment 351632 [details] 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 socat 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.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 12 development cycle. Changing version to '12'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Odd, I hadn't seen these before on "My bugzilla" page. Nor did I receive any emails regarding these. If it hadn't been for Steve emailing me these pointers, I'd still not have known. I'm active in fedora-devel and irc, please next time email me directly or ping me on irc before starting such a procedure? Thanks. I will take care of the socat issues today.
