Same here. No conflicts existed until fedora packagers duplicated
packages that already existed in well-known repositories and forked
them instead of mirroring.
A cross distribution package repository is always going to be
different from a distribution specific repository.
I don't see how that is relevant, given that the pre-existing
repositories mostly/all have added version-specific instances for each
fedora release.
Third party repositories follow their own licensing and packaging
policies which are different even they target a specific distribution.
This is what you fail to understand.
Could you share some amusing anecdotes about how the existing
repositories refused to make these changed versions available when you
tried to provide them to maintain complete compatibility?
Refer to list archives in the specific repositories or past discussions
even in this list. Giving you "amusing anecdotes" isn't my job.
The reason really doesn't matter. The effect and problems do.
The reasons do matter since you keep claiming incorrectly what it is
despite being corrected.
