It's kinda silly to try handling it like a secret, because that makes it
even more difficult to comment on it. One can easily search bugzilla for
your email address (using regexp) and find the tickets you've
reported. So, let's get some details:

 * https://bugzilla.redhat.com/986938
 * https://bugzilla.redhat.com/986935

That package is maintained by three packagers:

 * https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/bugs/cinnamon
   -> https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/name/cinnamon

Try to talk to all of them via the PACKAGENAME-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
address. If you consider yourself a part of the Fedora community,
see how you could contribute to improving the packages (e.g. by
signing up as a co-maintainer, so you could apply fixes yourself).
