#61: Fedora Packaging Guidelines: Weak Dependencies on packages from third-party repos -------------------------+--------------------- Reporter: maxamillion | Owner: Status: new | Priority: normal Component: General | Resolution: Keywords: meeting | -------------------------+--------------------- Comment (by kevin): I think if we did vet 3rd party repos and use the name of packages from one, but not another it would be a defacto 'blessing' of that repo by Fedora, which I think would be wrong. We can't really know what repo the packager had in mind, and they cannot point to it, so I think we should just forbid using deps outside the Fedora collection to avoid blessing any one repo or confusing our users as to which one(s) they should use. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/council/ticket/61#comment:5> council <https://fedorahosted.org/council> Fedora Council Public Tickets _______________________________________________ council-discuss mailing list council-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/council-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx The Fedora Project's mission is to lead the advancement of free and open source software and content as a collaborative community.
