Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 685151
Remove pixman-spice cairo-spice packages from distribution
Last modified: 2011-05-19 08:57:36 EDT
pixman-spice, cairo-spice and ffmpeg-spice were special versions of pixman, cairo, resp. ffmpeg for use by spice-server / client with the rebase to spice-0.8.0 done for RHEL-6.1 spice no longer needs these special versions and they can be removed from the distribution. Note not sure if filing a bug against distribution is the right thing to do, the intranet PackageListProcess webpage is a bit vague on wrt this.
