            Bug ID: 1000256
           Summary: mojomojo contains bundled Flash files
           Product: Fedora
           Version: rawhide
         Component: mojomojo
          Assignee: iarnell at gmail.com
          Reporter: tchollingsworth at gmail.com
        QA Contact: extras-qa at fedoraproject.org
                CC: iarnell at gmail.com, perl-devel at lists.fedoraproject.org
            Blocks: 1000236 (WebAssets-BundledBinaries)



This package contains binary files that are typically excuted by the Flash
player or another similar program.

These files are not permitted in Fedora. [1]  Everything we produce needs to
be built from source. [2]

The offending file(s) shipped in this package are:
/usr/share/mojomojo/root/static/flash/swfupload.swf
/usr/share/mojomojo/root/static/flash/swfupload_f8.swf
/usr/share/mojomojo/root/static/flash/swfupload_f9.swf

If these files are just a fallback for something that is now supported by
modern
web standards like the HTML5 <video> element, please just remove the binaries.

If removing these files would seriously cripple your application, please let me
know so we can figure out a solution.

If you have any questions, please shout.  Thanks!
