Dual license? This has been the case for a long time now, several years! I don't see the relationship between the two.

yourself reading new features
of RH7.3 at
http://www.redhat.com/software/linux/rhl_new_features.html
kde 3.0 is at the top :-)


Yes, they list it as a 'feature', but RH does not have employees specifically tasked at creating official RH packages. A RH employee does that at his own time and provides them to KDE. RH takes that.. in other words, they do the bare minimum, and willing to list it as a feature.. but will not take the responsibility of supporting it ;)

This is 'The Official Red Hat Linux Getting Started Guide for 7.3':
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-7.3-Manual/getting-started-guide/
As you see, there's a chapter for KDE (or you think it's another employee who wrote it
in his spare time :-))


A query on redhat bugzilla database:
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?product=Red+Hat+Linux&version=7.3&component=kdebase&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=VERIFIED&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&bug_status=RESOLVED&bug_status=CLOSED&bug_status=NEEDINFO&bug_status=MODIFIED&rep_platform=i386&email1=&emailassigned_to1=1&email2=&emailreporter2=1&changedin=&chfieldfrom=&chfieldto=Now&chfieldvalue=&short_desc=&long_desc=&bug_file_loc=&status_whiteboard=&cmdtype=doit&order=Bug+Number+Ascending&form_name=query

IMHO, they're supporting kde like any other package.


Sounds to me like dirty business.. in either case, the point is.. you cannot
email RH and say, why is there no Arabic package. They will reply and say, we don't provide any packages.


later

Have you tried?
