I think it ended up owned by the same person. One argument in favor of having the package owner report bugs upstream is they presumably have a better idea about how and where, have bugzilla accounts, etc. They can filter the reports (so when Fedora users open 10 RH bug entries for the same problem, upstream only has to deal with one report). The package owner will also need to know when the bug has been fixed to make an update (in some cases, end-users may need a package owner to help build test packages as well). -- Chris Adams <cmadams@xxxxxxxxxx> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
