I would like to propose new package x265, which is
a H265 video codec library. This is needed by ffmpeg
package I have proposed at the same time. I guess
this package will not used by other packages than
ffmpeg, so only the static library is provided by
this package.
I already prepared the package at the following
location.

I would like to withdraw this ITP because it does not
seem to align cygwin package policy. This package is
not ported for fedora due to some reasons.

These packages are now GPL and available from Debian main repo, *BSD ports,
OpenSuSE, and Slack, so maybe there used to be issues with non-relocatable
non-PIC assembler code, patents that expired/lapsed, VideoLan, or alternative
commercial licensing, for example no commercial use restrictions?
Many codecs like these can be installed on Fedora, etc. from RPMfusion repos.
