Hey guys, So I know we have http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Duplication_of_system_libraries which I think is pretty good, easy to understand and fairly simple. The problem I think is that some upstream's still want to ship internal, modified libraries. Prime examples are mono packages, I can think of Banshee, Cowbell and f-spot from personal experience. It's got to point where another upstream is giving me a little bit of hard time over it all, I even had a Debian developer agree with our guidelines (they have the same). Upstream says "it's a guideline not a rule". _MY_ question is, what can we (Fedora) do to make it clear that we have clear cut rules for why we don't want packages providing internal libraries? - NJ -- Nigel Jones <dev@xxxxxxxxxx> -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
