There is nothing about the fix being right. The criterion is having a fix. These 3 situation may qualify for a bug easy to fix: * a patch is proposed, attached to the bug, and tested * a trivial change is proposed to the .spec, preferably tested * help is offered, with different possibilities outlined, but the maintainer has to ack or specify his preferences for the style of the proposed fix, so that the contributor can create a suitable patch Of course this is not a formal definition, but I think it is quite easy to delineate. I hope that contributors won't abuse the recourse to this policy, of course. -- Pat -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
