I'm announcing the start of a new QA project, and I'm asking for your help. In the past, Core packages have not been held to the same standards as Extras. We want to fix this! We're starting by cleaning up the spec files so that Core packages can all be built using Mock. (If you aren't familiar with Mock, it's a cool RPM build tool that we use to build Fedora Extras.) This is where you come in: We need people to attempt Mock builds of Fedora Core packages, and file bugs when they find packages that don't build. Doing so will earn you the thanks and respect of your peers, but as an added incentive we're going to give away free stuff (!) to people who help out. Filing a bug on a broken package will earn you one Karma Point. If you include a patch that makes that package build successfully, you'll get five Karma Points. These will be redeemable for cool stuff from the Red Hat Cool Stuff Store (at an exchange rate to be determined once we figure out how much stuff we're actually allowed to give away :) For more info, check out: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/FixBuildRequires Ok? OK! Let's get testin'! -w
