Wait a minute! You need to define "fragmentation" here. It seems you refer to the geographical location of repos only. More important is the fragmentation caused by increasing the number of repos, especially if they create additional targets to build for. Considering how APIs/ABIs and stable packages are broken regularly, I don't think Fedora Packagers could handle the increased maintenance requirements added by a backports repo. Whether "official" or not, just imagine what can happen if repo 1 upgrades repo 2, or vice versa, and unexpectedly. Better attempt at making the current dist release usable/deployable in production environments, and encourage more users to take a look at Rawhide and Alpha/Beta releases earlier. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
