Hi guys,

is there any mechanism how to speed up release of critical security
fixes by Fedora update system?

For instance Firefox packages are released *week* after official
Mozilla
release which is really bad.

Any idea here?

and that is *really* a Fedora problem because for CentOS you get
critical security updates instantly while the same packages are
waiting
for days in Fedora

I don't think it's a fair comparison. CentOS gets updates from RHEL
which has an army of paid testers

it's not a matter of fair and paid testers when i don't get a update on machines with updates-testing enabled without going to the koji website and download it manually while it's already in CentOS 6/7 which needs to wait for RHEL updates and don't cook the packages independent

and especially in case of critical security updates it don't matter if something is fair and how it gets achievd, if there is a 0day exploit in the wild only the fact matters
