Summary: Review Request: viewmtn - Web interface for Monotone version control system https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=435842 ------- Additional Comments From roland@xxxxxxxxxx 2008-03-14 14:21 EST ------- I'm not asserting opinions, nor am I any python expert. I'm just trying to follow Fedora packaging guidelines. With the sense of the symlink inverted, I cannot get the package to build because of unpackaged /etc/*.py[oc] files. (Please try it yourself with koji build --scratch.) As I understand it, the role of the reviewer is to enforce Fedora packaging policies, not to pick them. Please refer to python packaging guidelines that say exactly what I should do, and have those guidelines changed if you disagree with them. I could not find anything clear about a case like this, so the existing Fedora example, and the facts about what works at all, are the guide. The database sharing really is not a simple problem, I told you the truth. If any obvious suggestion were actually viable, I would already be doing it. Please do not hold this review hostage to that can of worms. If you have improvements to suggest, feel free to send concrete .spec patches that you have tested yourself. If the improvements you advocate are not mandated by Fedora packaging policies, then please save them for proper bug reports once the package exists in Fedora, and do not conflate opinions and desires for the package's details with a Fedora packaging policy conformance review. -- 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, or are watching someone who is. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
