I won't say its impossible but its -very- hard to remove the bad connotations and bad history from a name without changing the name of the thing itself. Someone just the other day on the Phoronix forums was saying how they still don't trust RPMs because of RPM Hell all those years back. The problems may have been fixed but the name remained and therefore the history remained.
So are we going to rename RPM, or just accept that idiots will remain idiots whatever we do? If someone bases their technical decisions on an experience from a totally different era (and RPM Hell is ancient history in internet time) then they're just looking for an excuse to hold a grudge. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
