Re: Need instructions with packaging
The comment is from 2007 Ralf Ertzinger 2007-11-28 06:44:41 EST Apart from the IOS files, the sources contain two binary files (mips64_microcode, ppc32_microcode) which are somehow incorporated into the emulator. I do not know what these files contain or where they come from and what license they are under. GNS3 took over development of dynamips. Are the binary files still there? GNS3 does not provide the IOS images as far as I know.

It's not just the operating system, but also the boot firmware (the equivalent of BIOS or UEFI).

[1] Operating systems like Windows and Fedora have licenses that permit them to be run using virtualization software such as KVM/QEMU, therefore it's okay to ship such "emulator" software in Fedora. On the other hand, the license for Mac OS X expressly forbids virtualization on other platforms, therefore it would *not* be okay to ship an Mac emulator in Fedora. So, is there an operating system whose license permits it to be run using dynamips? If so, contact Fedora Legal [2] and provide evidence so they can reconsider whether it's okay to include. If not, it's simply not suitable [3] for Fedora. -T.C.

Need instructions with packaging
Hi! I'm Adrian Soliard (FAS:asoliard), from Argentina. I'm trying to package GNS3, a graphical network simulator, that software needs dynamips (a Cisco router emulator). I recently start with the joining process to the package maintainers team, and find in the Package Review Tracker the two packages (gns3 and dynamips). GNS3: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=510464 dynamips: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1071109 It's look like gns3 is closed, and dynamips is assigned, but, what that this mean? I really don't understand the situations of the packages -- Adrian Soliard asoli...@fedoraproject.org https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Asoliard http://www.adriansoliard.com -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
