Last time I checked, Harald Reindl was not the only Fedora user in the world. Your argument essentially boils down to "I don't do this, therefore nobody else in the world does, or at least nobody else in the world needs to". That is not a particularly convincing argument. > that's it - AND NO - there is no business try to pack every php > thing as > RPM because - as example wordpress - who the hell gains anything > with a > package when you have 10, 100, 200 users with their webspace and > just a > single location - that works for things like phpMyAdmin with a > simple > authentication against the database server but not for virtual > webspaces > - but nobody right in his mind expects that to work with RPM and/or > distribution packages Um. But weren't you just saying: "if Fedora changes to more and more recommend "pip", "gem" and "cpan" like installs instead RPM packages it is no longer a distribution over the long because that would mean finally you have a core OS and handle anything else like Microsoft or Apple - does anybody really want to go that road?" So...I'm finding it difficult to understand what it is you're actually *saying* here. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
