Hmmm, I didn't really think about it, because I don't let RPMForge to replace the base packages via priorities and protectbase anyway. Now that I think about it, I feel that this is a valid concern. Actually, the only reason why there was a rebuild of the flac package is that it provides an xmms plug-in which is not normally built by Redhat, because they don't provide xmms, so it's of no use. I came to the conclusion that the real solution for this problem would be to rewrite the spec, so that it builds the xmms plugin only against the flac-devel package which is provided by the base repo. What do you think about it? I might give it a try, although I am not as proficient at packaging as the other members of the list. P.S. I apologize for the possible delays as I might be forced off the list for awhile. We've got a terrible storm last night and it damaged the communications all over the city.
