Hi,
I notice that Fedora 7.90 still has vorbis-tools-1.1.1.svn20070412-2. A newer version of svn would fix bug 244757[1]. Given that an svn version rather than an official release is being used anyway wouldn't testing be a good time to try to bump to a slightly newer revision that doesn't contain this disabling bug for oggdec?

Hmm, looks like no response from the maintainer for a while. Try contacting them directly and give it a week or so. If still no response you might want to consider orphaning it:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/OrphanedPackages
and finding someone else who wants to pick it up - there seems to be a few takers from that bz entry.
Cheers Chris

Thanks. It turns out the maintainer is still alive, if quite busy. I was just slightly perturbed by the suspicion that this package was going to be broken in 2 consecutive Fedora releases.
