Fedora core 5 will (temporarily) break non-GPL modules Posted Mar 16, 2006 15:52 UTC (Thu) by dvrabel (subscriber, #9500) [Link] The expression is "a shot across the bow", with bow referring to the pointy end of a ship. i.e., a warning shot.
It appears a simple oversight to me, rather than a deliberate attempt to make binary modules awkward to use. It does however illustrate nicely one of the drawbacks of binary modules -- they aren't tested for compatibility by some major distributions.
