Hi,
I would like to remove fam from [extra]. It is old, uses dnotify rather than the better inotify and does not build without lots of patches. It seems the patches we do use create Arch specific issues with log file filling (FS#14623). Finally, gamin does most of the job fam does but better and it is currently in the [community] repo.
Any objections? Also, should I bring gamin to [extra] as a replacement or leave it in [community]? I really do not care which....
