Summary: Review Request: redland https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=195647 ------- Additional Comments From thomas@xxxxxxxxxxxxx 2007-02-12 05:03 EST ------- wrt. 5: - upstream is relatively responsive, but I only ever sent one patch upstream - pkg-config is not the only way they provide paths to developer apps, they also have redland-config - there is nothing as such wrong with installing headers in /usr/include, it is merely a style issue. While I personally much prefer projects that care about these issues and use subdirectories, and do so in my own projects, it is IMO not a requirement and not a maintainer's call to make. I personally get hugely annoyed when a downstream packager does something to one of my projects that really should be the maintainer's call. Changing stuff like this is a cost to users/developers of the package that gets paid by the upstream maintainer, not the packager. - further examples of packages on my system that install headers in /usr/include directly: gd, gmp, libidn, libjpeg, js, mx, openldap, libodbc, pilot-link, libtiff, libtermcap, zlib -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
