Summary: Merge Review: file-roller https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=225751 ------- Additional Comments From caillon@xxxxxxxxxx 2007-02-14 16:47 EST ------- Looks good from the brief glance I took, but I strongly feel this whole thing should be a "good practises" recommendation and not a requirement. If you're trying to prevent against "bad" RPMs, well you're not going to do that if there are exceptions... Even for a good SRPM, someone could simply fork an open source project, not have a repo other than the SRPM, and distribute whatever code they want that way in extras, theoretically. This has no bearing on the actual packaging or quality of RPMs. It's only redeeming quality is that it might potentially help with automated verification of upstream sources, but that does not exist right now and that potential benefit should be enough to convince most packagers to do this. There's simply no reason to make it a hard requirement IMO other than because it's always been that way (which is no real reason). -- 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
