It is now for sure that fedora will now have systemc.[0] However, your spec file is 70% complete :), the rest of the 30% is to make the spec file respect the very strict packaging guidelines [1] of Fedora. I will help you with that. Please file a package review request [2] on bugzilla and register you as a Fedora packager [3], if you are not: I am a sponsor, so you don't to go and find another one. Once you have filed a package review request for verilator, we can start with the official review and hopefully push verilator into fedora repositories very soon. Also paste the link of the RH Bugzilla on the Fedora Electronic Lab mailing list so that there will be more eyes to review verilator.

Belgacom is taking to much time :(

Please join the Fedora Electronic Lab mailing list : https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-electronic-lab-list Once you have a spec file which you feel ready, post it in the FEL mailing list. I will look at it and see that you get all the required access to be its official maintainer of Fedora and EPEL for Centos. :) Let's add verilator to the list of features we want for FEL 11. Kind regards, Chitlesh

[Fedora-electronic-lab-list] Now focussing on FEL 11
by Chitlesh GOORAH 13 Oct '08

13 Oct '08

Hello there, We have discussed previously the entrance of the following packages: * systemc - license issue * electric - java issue, sun java is still not an option * tkgate - local issues upstream doesn't want to fix. Aanjhan, any news about electric ? Thibault, any news from tkgate's developer? As for the "systemc", after much back and forth between, TomCallaway, Red Hat legal and the OSCI (the SystemC people), they decided not to make any changes to their license, due to the cost and time it would take to do so. TomCallaway has added the OSCI SystemC License to the Fedora Licensing list as a Bad License, due to its non-free status. Thus systemc will not go into FEL collection. Today, Fedoa10 Preview will be released. And at the end of this month, FEL10 will be officially out, with the release of Fedora 10. I would like to thank ThibaultNorth and Aanjhan for their enormous help during the FEL10 development cycle, as I was scarcely around during June and July. Though I'm still waiting for my own internet connection from Belgacom, I would like to invite you all to start focussing on FEL 11. I guess it will be out in April 2009. I have invited Jochen Roth (from IBM) to join this mailing list. He has been introducing Binutils for the SPU on IBM Cell processors on Fedora 10 and EPEL. Now, what do you guys would like to include in FEL11 ? Please propose some key areas of electronic design which you think we should work and include into fedora ? Let's say we set one month to discuss what we all wish? Then I'll schedule a timetable and gather enough human resources to get the job done in time :) regards, Chitlesh

[Fedora-electronic-lab-list] Toped ubuntu package
by Svilen 12 Oct '08

12 Oct '08

Hi, I have a couple of requests for an Ubuntu package. Some time ago I posted a packing request on Ubuntu's bugzilla, but there is not much response yet. Obviously there are a bunch of other toolos waiting packaging. In the same time I spot on some blogs that there is an idea to package FEL for Ubuntu. Is there any chance to get some status on this? Regards Svilen
