If I remember correctly) * Most of the servers use no authentication in their default setup so the configs need to be changed to default to some "strong" authentication, people shouldn't end up exporting their homes without authentication just because they started a service. * I've been packaging cint (the c++ interpreter) on it's own subpackage since it can be usefull outside of root, the latest version of root doesn't build the binary anymore though and it looks like upstream is starting to use cint on it's own (http://root.cern.ch/drupal/content/cint). It might be worthwhile to check if root can use the "external" cint to avoid code duplication. * find a solution for libafterimage -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
