I've had so many bug reports to Fedora go ignored, only to have them

Yeah, this is frustrating, but there's just plain more bugs to go around
than developer resources. In many cases, especially where the issue requires
feature development, you may have more success working directly with the
upstream. Fedora packagers are generally reluctant to carry significant
downstream changes.
I just ask them who upstream is. Then I deal directly with them.
When it gets fixed, I link the fix comments to the Fedora Bug
and Fedora is more than happy to oblige.
You CAN NOT do this with RHEL and clones. Upstream tells you
that yo are being ridiculous running such an out dated
OS and they can't help you, even if they wanted to.
