Effective immediately XaraLX has been removed from Fedora Extras for all 
releases.   We have taken this drastic step  as we have been made aware  that 
it is in violation of Fedora Policies.  While the application has been 
released as GPL,  it contains a Static Library that is still proprietary and 
available in binary form only.  

There is a note in the source tarball stating that at some future time the 
library will also be released under the GPL.  When that happens we will 
welcome XaraLX back as a package.
