Packages from fc6 that are not part of rhel5

[Thorsten Leemhuis]

Hi!

Some packages that are part of FC6 are not included in RHEL5 afaics.
Gmime, which I maintained in FE4 until it got moved to FC with Version
5, is one of those. I build it for EPEL5 today.

I thought it might be helpful to compile a list of those packages that
are part of FC6 but not included in RHEL5. You can find it below (I'll
put it in the EPEL-FAQ in the wiki, too). Note: that list is compiled
from src.rpm and thus sub-packages (gmime-devel, mono-*) are not
mentioned in it.

Anyone interested in building those for EPEL? Especially having mono in
EPEL might be nice to have.

If you want to maintain one of those it should be enough to request a
EPEL-branch if the package got reviewed already -- e.g. in the past for
Extras of during the merge review. If it didn't get reviewed yet you
IMHO should help with finishing the merge review fist before requesting
a EPEL branch. Ohh, and it might be good to ask the current "Core"
maintainer if he wants to maintain the package in EPEL himself before
requesting the EPEL branch.
