If I see a package named like that, I'd expect it to actually provide some functionality. In reality one needs to install one of the -nautilus, -gedit etc subpackages for basic functionality. Renaming the package to -core would make it more obvious that it only contains shared components. What do you think? There was a recent thread on fedora-devel list about -core subpackages and metapackages: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2010-April/134735.html I am really not sure if it's a good idea, but perhaps there should also be a metapackage which pulls in all other rabbitvcs-* subpackages. P.S. Can you fix the commented out thunar sections wrt Requiring fully versioned main package and the mv -> cp change? -- 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. _______________________________________________ package-review mailing list package-review@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/package-review
