Ah - different use case than most others do ;-)
I also belong to this minority. All I do is an --exclude='*/x86_64/*', as I don't have (yet) an Opteron, just Centrino and PowerPC. I have an up-to-date mirror of 10.0, 10.1 and factory at home :-)
Linspire have proprietary codecs on their "Freespire" distro. So, I
assume distributing those is legal... Can we include those codecs on
our "closed-source CD" ?
We can only include those that we have contracts for.
And would it be difficult to make some more extra contracts? I never liked Linspire/Freespire, as most of the distribution is rather limited, but they certainly have an edge in the codecs area. And while I take part in the Packman effort, and recompile what I can on PowerPC, out of the box support could attract more users. Bye,
