why conary is interesting in itself is a separate topic that i'd like to frame more as "why do we want to use conary on top of fedora instead of just using fedora as it is"
this should not be about conary features. but about benefits that come from our work to fedora as a whole, even if they don't use conary: here is what i have so far: * the process finds bugs in fedora and fedora packages that we report back. we could use this on rawhide to test packages before they are released. * conary finds more dependencies and can ensure that all dependencies are met. these can be reported to improve fedora packages. * conary keeps all packages in revision control, so every version of every package released will remain available for the future. this helps server users who need to downgrade individual packages after an upgrade broke their server. (this issue is currently being discussed in the Fedora Server WG) any others? can we make a list of issues reported? mkj: could you possibly share some email conversations you had about bugs you found. including current fedora but also centOS since some issues there may have made it into fedora as well. you can send that to me privately. i'd like to make a picture of things reported. and what impact that had. not really listing them in the talk, but give an overview of maybe how many issues were found and what classes of issues those were and possibly mention an example or two. greetings, martin. -- eKita - the online platform for your entire academic life hackerspace beijing - http://qike.info -- chief engineer eKita.co pike programmer pike.lysator.liu.se caudium.net societyserver.org BLUG secretary beijinglug.org foresight developer foresightlinux.org realss.com unix sysadmin Martin Bähr working in china http://societyserver.org/mbaehr/ _______________________________________________ Foresight-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.foresightlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/foresight-devel
