Upstream pywbem project took 2 internal libraries and broke them out into separate libraries. I asked if they would be OK with maintaining these new packages in fedora and they said yes[1]. They followed the process and asked for a sponsor and got no response [2].
They have now pitched the idea of using "vendorize" to meet this requirement [3]. However, I believe the answer to this from a fedora packaging standpoint is no. Is this correct?
I would think if the upstream project could somehow use vendorize before they packaged the upstream release tarball, that it would be OK?
Thanks! -Tony
