They ask for an explanation as to why they override the distribution they are geared towards. Arguably, Christopher could have filed a single bugzilla with a list of all packages that conflict. However that would tend to get messy as per package responses were added. > Note that spot's suggestion was that "if this is as big of a problem > as [Christopher Stone] claims, [he should] start filing bugs if/when > things break", not to bugzilla *empty* (!!) reports.

Look, if you have a package that overrides one that is already present in Core or Extras, then either the Core or Extras package is broken or you have an extra feature turned on, or some other difference. If there is no difference, why do you have the package to begin with? In all those cases, I think it's worth looking at. If it gets documented in your bugzilla and a Core/Extras package is broken we can point back to that when a Fedora bugzilla is opened to _fix_ the brokenness. If it's a feature that we can enable in Extras/Core, then we can also point back to it. > It's getting more ridicule and awkward by the minute, someone has to > stop this, please. If I had done this instead of Christopher, would it be awkward? Or if this thread had never taken place, and this was done would it be awkward? I'm asking because I see this as a step towards getting ATrpms and Fedora working more closely together. If that is truly going to happen, neither side can hold grudges. josh -- 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
