There are other programs in fedora with non OSI compliant licenses, what about them?
Could you give some examples?
AFAIK the license of Xfig isn't OSI compliant.
Sounds open source to me:
Ok, perhaps they changed it or I remember wrong.
They won't fix the problems because they can't (see http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=88360 ).
I repeat "fixed to the best of the ability of the maintainers". In this case it looks like it has been reported upstream, so the ball is in their court. Fedora project objectives shouldn't be ignored because they cause inconvenience.
It's the same for me in the end, the bug isn't fixed and won't be. I'm not talking about ignoring objectives just about a way to deal with problems.
