Thanks for the suggestion, Rahul. I have stayed away from the fedora
devel list because I lack the technical skills to even think about
developing software. Since several FC2 users on this list could
benefit, though, an official update of FC2 alsa packages strikes me as a
good idea. My own efforts to rebuild FC2 packages could prove
problematic as well and even if successful the other FC2 users would
still be out of luck unless they were willing to take the chance that my
rpms would not harm their systems.
Instead of subscribing to the devel list, though, maybe it would be best
if I could direct the attention of fedora list subscribers who are also
on the devel list. In an effort to do so, I will start a post a message
here with an appropriate subject title.
