"double check no new > issues have cropped up" I agree (I think). > As I see it Fedora Legacy should release ASAP. ASAP after receiving two publish votes. Come on people, test and vote!!! > Remember that redhat has released several broken packages. We want to avoid releasing broken packages at all costs. But we shouldn't stop a functioning, tested patch that fixes a security problem be delayed just because a second problem is found in the same package. If the first problem is fixed and tested, it should be released even if another (existing) problem is identified with that package. Waiting until all known problems are fixed just delays releases for ever, discourages people from testing them (since they test is no invalidated), and causes complaints and bad PR for the FLP. > They fixed > that releasing improved packages some few days later. Hopefully we won't have broken packages, so we won't have to fix them. But I see no problem with releasing a package to fix BUG #1 on Tuesday, then releasing the same package to fix BUG #2 on Friday (for example). > I do not understand why Fedora Legacy has to be better than RedHat. We don't. But even Red Hat tries not to release broken packages, and even Red Hat won't release something without QA testing. We need to follow that lead. But we shouldn't delay tested patches for new, not-yet-existing patches, which we have done in the past, and looks like we may be doing again now... > Andres -- Eric Rostetter -- fedora-legacy-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-legacy-list
