https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2338799 --- Comment #7 from David Levner <davidlevner@xxxxxxxxx> --- I understand that the choice of a computer language is subjective. Many people prefer Python, Java, Javascript, C, C++, and the list goes on. I have no problem with that. (As far as I can tell, Python is installed by default. I see it on my systems and I never explicitly installed it.) It's not that Perl is so important. Fedora already installs a lot of Perl modules by default because it's useful to Fedora. I have used Perl with Fedora for over ten years and I didn't know that I needed to explicitly install it. (Previous releases of Fedora probably installed more Perl modules and I didn't notice that anything was missing.) Installing Perl and perhaps some other languages by default would make Fedora more software developer-friendly. Or maybe Fedora could ask during a fresh install how Fedora is going to be used and suggest additional packages to install. Or Fedora could incorporate a little AI and, based on what the users are doing with a system, suggest additional packages. I would like to take Petr's suggestion and move this "bug" to the comps component so that the maintainers see it and make an informed decision. I can live with "no" as their answer. However, I am not sure where to move the bug. Is "comps-extra" the right component? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2338799 Report this comment as SPAM: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Bugzilla&format=report-spam&short_desc=Report%20of%20Bug%202338799%23c7 -- _______________________________________________ perl-devel mailing list -- perl-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to perl-devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/perl-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
