Hello Andres,
thank you for information.
< Luciano will be able to confirm, but I think that he just created

Clear ... I try to go this direction as well. I hope it will work like that.
Side effect is - I will probably have to repack the source tarball to remove
the code from the
source package. From Luciano's email I understand he has to do the same for
debian.
I believe this could be quite unfortunate from the security point of view.
It could be quite tricky to compare whether what is in the (fedora) source
package is
really what I got from the upstream project.
Do you think it would be feasible for you that in future the project would be
delivering 2 tarballs:
1 - the full package with all dependencies
2 - the w3af core package with only the w3af codebase without dependencies
What do you think? Would that be feasible?

I can try to make separate package or sub-package for this.

Thank you ... that would be great.
< One problem you might find (or already found?) is that w3af

Nope python 2.5 is not supported, only 2.6 is.
As far as I can tell it is working with python 2.6.
Only problem with compilation of python object code was with scapy
extlib/scapy/scapy.py .
SyntaxError: ('invalid syntax', ('/usr/share/w3af/extlib/scapy/scapy.py', 3114,
46, ' tr = map(lambda x: Gnuplot.Data(x,with="lines"), trt.values())\n'))
Other than that it seems to work, but I was not able to check and confirm all
the plugins are working as expected.
Best regards
Michal Ambroz
