Hey Pranith!

Thanks for putting this topic on my radar. Uncommunicated packaging
changes have indeed been a pain for non-RPM distributions on several
occasions. We should try to inform other packagers about required
changes in the packaging scripts or upgrade/installation process better.

How can we make the process of giving good packages for things other than
RPMs?
My guess is that we need to announce packaging changes very clearly.
Maybe it makes sense to have a very low-traffic packaging@xxxxxxxxxxx
mailinglist where all packagers from all distributions are subscribed?
+1 for announce packaging changes very clearly.

But I think we should keep using gluster-devel ML for packaging discussions
as IMO it is the right platform to get all developers and packagers
together. However We need to discuss these stuff clearly which we lacked
before.
My idea was to reduce the number of emails that packagers receive. Not
all packagers are active as a Gluster developer, and the -devel list has
quite some traffic. I am afraid that important changes would get lost in
the noise.

I understand. However my thought was, if we segregate the discussion we might miss valuable feedback from developers. Also not sure if discussion around packaging on gluster-devel will increase understanding around packaging of developers. I agree with you on the email traffic though.

I've added all packagers that I could track on CC, and am interested in
their preferences and ideas.

Thanks,
Niels
