I don't want to take any responsibility for other distrubution. It is not about taking responsibility or not. It is about the change being fedora specific or not. If you look at the xtide package, what is in th eREADME.Fedora is not specific of fedora. It is specific of the package, sure, but not of fedora. > The maintainers on other distribution may want to reuse what I wrote > for Fedora, but in such case the maintainer (of other distrubution) > must mention: > ------------------------------------------------------- > The notes Fedora maintainer writes are also applied to the package > distributed on this distrubition, so I bollowed the notes. > > If you see something wrong on this notes please ask "me", not Fedora > maintainer. > ------------------------------------------------------- =Only if the license say so, and it currently doesn't. > Well, I think generally the package maintainer on a distrubution > must write the notes for the distrubution (if any) by his/her > responsibility. Right, but, in the xtide case, and it is true of all the case I have come accross, the notes have nothing fedora specific (apart from the bugzilla adress, and it is in any case not the right place to tell where fedora bugzilla is). They are linked with how the package is done, but have nothing fedora specific, really. -- Pat -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
