A user added a repo by whatever means (installed an rpm, copied a file, hand wrote it out). They have a reasonable expectation that the repo they enabled will work just like any other repo they have. To make that the case is just silly.
But the fact is that some repos do not behave like others. Some repos override base packages and fork Fedora into a new distribution. And unfortunately the majority of users who enable these repositories are totally unaware of the consquences until it is too late. All we are trying to do is to have some kind of warning mechanism in place to help protect unknowing or unsuspecting users. -- Fedora-maintainers mailing list Fedora-maintainers@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers -- Fedora-maintainers-readonly mailing list Fedora-maintainers-readonly@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers-readonly
