That's a bit of oversimplification. In general scientists do coding just fine but don't want to do more nor even think about it (no packaging, no thoughts on system administration...). However there are IT people working together with scientists who do system administration well. Still the needs are specific and very different from other environments. -- Pat -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
