I don't have email conversations to share.  Brett would be the one
who could share them for CentOS; there, I haven't been involved.

A bug that we found and reported in Fedora (in python) turned out
to be an upstream Python3 bug.  We worked around it (the workaround
was an improvement for Fedora anyway...) and Bohuslav "Slavek"
Kabrda at Red Hat nailed it down to the upstream bug, implemented
the fix with a test case, and pushed it upstpream.

For packaging bugs we find, our intent was to review and summarize
after getting up to date because we don't want to report stale bugs.

The biggest bug (from our perspective) that we have found so
far is conflicting path contents and/or attributes.  There are
a bunch of packages that share file names but have conflicting
contents/attributes between architectures.  We have a complete list
of paths by package.  It was our intention to review this after we
got the import up to date so as not to file stale bugs.  If you
want to look at the list we found, check out:

    factory-capsule-rpm=f20s1.flnx.org@f:20s1-c

and look through pathConflictsExceptions near the end of the file.

To be clear, archExceptions below that are definitely not bugs;
instead, they are expressions where a package not existing on
all architectures is understood to not be a bug. By default, we
do not want to package versions that are incomplete across
architectures (say, from a partial mirror) and so we have to
be explicit about all intentional exceptions.
