That will require more than just posting complaints in several places of this world. It requires volunteers to work on creating add-on packages or on changing the packaging fundamentally. It's not as if the packaging were wrong. But it has turnt out that the user community simply doesn't get accustomed to the package design (and e.g. its special security considerations and setup procedure). -- packaging mailing list packaging@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/packaging
