Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.5-8 How reproducible: n/a Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: n/a Expected results: n/a Additional info: Git repo: git://people.freedesktop.org/~airlied/radeontool . Browsable at: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~airlied/radeontool/ .

Dave Airlie, would you mind maintaining radeontool in Fedora?
Feel free to put me as owner, I should update it with proven packager Dave.
(In reply to comment #2) > Feel free to put me as owner, I should update it with proven packager You need to take ownership at, because I can only release my ownership: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/name/radeontool
You need to take ownership of radeontool to avoid it being retired as part of the Fedora 18 branch procedure.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle. Changing version to '19'. (As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.) More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping/Fedora19
This is fixed at least in Fedora 19.
