Who build the package is not important, what's in the package and the quality is more important. what I want to express is if the packages without meego's special patches, meego should just use/rebuild it from fedora, it reduce the cost of the project.
that sounds nice in theory, but does not work in practice. MeeGo and Fedora have very different objectives and that makes what you describe not a good option, and not current practice. As an example, Maemo started with Debian, but current Maemo and Debian are rather far apart. MeeGo does borrow some packages from Fedora (like glibc) just like we borrow some packages from OpenSUSE. I don't expect this to grow dramatically over time; in fact as things evolve further I'd not be surprised if the opposite happens. _______________________________________________ MeeGo-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-dev
