Hi Kevin Thanks for your prompt response.
We were thinking about getting the code ourselves and trying to sort this locally. Do you think this is completely out of the question? I presume altering build scripts would not be a problem for us, but if there are any significant, possibly architectural, changes in the software itself (that require something RHEL 7 exclusive), then perhaps we might be barking up the wrong tree. Can you think of anything? Off the top of your head.

It would be a moderate effort to add this (mostly in the build scripts and particularly in the way the native media libraries are built). We have no plans to add this support. -- Kevin On 4/3/2019 7:51 AM, Chris Nicholas wrote: > Hi. I’ve been directed to forward this query to this address by Gluon > support.
