Your observation doesn't match with mine: * There have always been prematurely shipped, immature and dysfunctional packages causing user-side malfunctions. * The kernel has always not worked somewhere. * KDE and perl packaging policies have not changed. * There have always been broken package deps in updates. * Fedora doesn't ship updated DVDs/CDs. ... What has changed is * the people in FPB and FESCO * the number of packages in Fedora. * the amount of bureaucracy. * the packages being affected by "instability". ... Where I have to agree with you * I am perceiving an increasing unwillingness of maintainers to fix bugs/defects/malfunctions of released packages. * I am perceiving an increasingly low quality package submissions and of low quality package reviews. ...
