But README.fedora may be _really_ Fedora specific issue
(e.g. for better performance another files are needed but packaging
them altogether cannot be done due to Fedora policy, as you and I wrote
on xtide-common package)
These are not really fedora specific. If I was to review xtide I would
have insisted on this file being called xtide-README.dist. For example
it is also true for EPEL. And it is also certainly true for any
free software distribution. So I think that this is a bug in xtide.
Would you accept patches to correct this?
