Hey everyone! Fedora user and long-time GNU/Linux enthusiast here. I am doing my best at attempting to complete the requisite steps[1] for re-introducing the diffuse diff utility to the official Fedora repositories. This is a light - yet very capable - GUI diff tool, that integrates nicely with GNOME and other GTK-based environments. It was included in the default repos until a couple of releases back[2]. The project was revived somewhat recently, and has been ported to Python 3, seeing regular stable releases[3].
I currently administer a COPR repo[4] for said package, but believe it would be beneficial for more users to have access to this very nice program, without having to add an external repository. I am relatively new to packaging for Fedora, but have been steadily getting better at it, and am in communication with the current developer of diffuse[5]. I hope that I'm going about this the right way. Please let me know if I should furnish any of you with additional information, otherwise I am onto the next step in this process. Thanks for your consideration! --- References: 01. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1905277#c2 02. https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/diffuse 03. https://github.com/MightyCreak/diffuse/releases 04. https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/niohiani/Diffuse-Python-3/ 05. https://github.com/MightyCreak/diffuse/issues/68 _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
