Re: Start packaging/maintaining in Fedora

[Vít Ondruch <vondruch@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Sylvia,

Just wondering, what were the places you were looking at to find the information how to start maintaining package in Fedora. Or what is the reason you want to package something into Fedora.

I am asking, since there are various ongoing activities to make the process easier to newcomers [1], but unfortunately, they are not always successful. So would it be for example helpful, if gnome-software shown some link with help how to package the missing software, e.g.

1) Open Gnome Software

2) Sear for "myfavoriteapp"

3) The link [2] is provided instead of "Application was not found" message.

Would this help or just make you confused? Would the similar approach for Fedora packages [3] helped? Is there some other place you were looking at which long time Fedora package does not visit, but newcomer does?

Hello everyone!

I want to start packaging and maintaining packages in Fedora, but I'm a bit lost. What should I do first? How can I start maintaining a package?  Is there anyone who can guide me a bit, please?

I know Python and C languages.

Thanks in advance!  Sylvia
