Sorry, I don't follow here. I fail to see how this is the opposite of that other discussion.
I *think* the point he is trying to make is that some people don't like 3rd party repositories overriding Fedora Extras without good reason and some other people dont like Fedora Extras maintainers adding packages in Fedora Extras without first consulting with the 3rd party repositories. Which goes back to my original idea of having an official Fedora wiki page that lists 3rd party repositories. Fedora Extras maintainers could then check this wiki page to find out which repositories might already have a package available for the package they want to submit. The wiki page will also have information such as which repositories have a review or QA process, which repositories override core or extras (and if they do override these packages, is there a specific reason for them to do so). As well as any other additional information which is required to inform other users of such repositories. -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
