Hi Kevin,

My question is OT, but just curious.

Why is it a bad idea? I thought the maintainer explained why it can't be 
generated during install. And the other suggestion about removing the 
source documentation also doesn't seem feasible to me. (I am a ROOT user 
and I have to use those quite often)

PS: I had no idea that ROOT was finally accepted in Fedora! I was the 
one who made the first request when Rahul was collecting the names of 
requested packages. I was even CC'd on the original RFE. Wonder why I 
didn't get the notification when it was approved :-o. Thanks for 
bringing it to my attention. :)
