The relationship between JPackage and Fedora Core is complicated. I
wish it were simpler.
What we really have in FC is a fork of JPackage where we've removed all
dependencies on non-free software, so we're only partly compatible with
the JPackage repository.
From what I can tell the JPackage project is moving in that same
direction as well. They appear to be dropping "non-free" dependencies
from their "free" packages. Can anybody confirm that this is their
actual plan?
