Description of problem: The SLOF package exists to provide the guest firmware image for the qemu-system-ppc64 -M pseries machine. However the version of qemu in F18 expects a much newer SLOF (git tag qemu-slof-20120731) than the one currently packaged (qemu-slof-20120217).
Could the reporter request co-maint on the package, then you can fix all of these bugs yourself.
Well, I can't, since I'm not a Fedora dev. My colleague Tony Breeds is, however and says he is willing to be the co-maint and ferry my fixes in. What's the next step?
