Hi Susmit,

Sorry, but I would prefer if you did not push this into Fedora at the current
time.

AMIDE is dependent on both the dcmtk and xmedcon libraries that are not
currently in Fedora. Even though you can build amide without these libraries,
it's close to useless without these libraries. It'd be like distributing a
version of GIMP that couldn't read/write jpeg, png, or tiff. This is not the
user experience that I want people to have with this application. I've been
holding off on submitting this package myself for that very reason.

There's ongoing work to get DCMTK properly packaged for Fedora.

If somebody wants to take on packaging xmedcon (http://xmedcon.sf.net), that'd
also be useful.

Andy
