And yes I am aware that pretty much all software has bugs, my question was mainly about if severe usability bugs are problematic in this situation, I believe it was issue #12 which prevented(and still prevents) Tails from using kloak, so I wasn't sure if it would be enough to bar it from Fedora's repos. I hope that clears my question up a bit, nonetheless you still answered my question just fine, so thank you again.

Dne 24. 03. 24 v 12:32 dop. None via devel napsal(a):Hello everyone! My name is Jonathon Hyde, and I want to become a packager for Fedora. I'm excited to contribute back something to a project that I have been using for so long. I haven't made my first package submission yet, but I wanted kloak to be among the first packages I submit. I had a question first though, what is the tolerance for buggy/beta software in Fedora? The project has a couple of notable open issues on Github, mainly https://github.com/vmonaco/kloak/issues/12 and https://github.com/vmonaco/kloak/issues/72. I have already successfully built with mock and weeded out the issues that showed up in rpmlint, I'm just not sure what state upstream needs to be in before a package submission can be accepted in Fedora. I had quite a few submissions I wanted to make and maintain, so a generalized answer/explanation is preferred, because I can't find any documentation to answer this particular question.I look forward to learning and contributing back what little I can offer to the Fedora community.Closest to your question is:https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Package_maintainer_responsibilities/#_manage_security_issuesYou should work on security bugs in timely manner. And you should co-operate with upstream on solving bugs. Somehow. In very elemental meaning that means you forward the bug to upstream.And BTW every project has bugs. If therewa condition to include only packages without bug then Fedora would have no package at all. :)Feel free to submit your package for Package Review.--Miroslav Suchy, RHCARed Hat, Manager, Packit and CPT, #brno, #fedora-buildsys--_______________________________________________devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxTo unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxFedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelinesList Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxDo not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
