RHEL based desktop is still not dead I may reconsider that when/if I sometime start to use an EL based system that has some kind of use for or sensible means for audio output.

Audio hardware, speakers, something like that. Anyway none of the EL boxes I use have anything that I could even effortlessly test libmodplug with. And even if I could, I wouldn't sign up for maintaining something I don't actually use, that kind of maintenance is not what I want from EL distros/packages. This is exactly why I stopped maintaining EL libmodplug years ago, and nothing has really changed since. The package needs a maintainer who actually eats his own dog food at least to some extent. ___ epel-devel mailing list epel-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/epel-devel
