The community has lost control over what used to be a community-driven Fedora Extras. The new updates system has been advertised for many months as offering QA features, such as a repoclosure that would prevent broken dependencies from entering the repo. Instead, our precious users are confronted with what I consider an extremely questionable updates-testing strategy that doesn't fix their typical problems. Add to that a repository structure that has turnt into a playground and a moving target for our users. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
