This is a good idea. Would be great to minimize bundling at the core. Bundled packages do not get the same level of review as unbundled packages. Want to encourage upstreams to move used features into releases so that bundling is not a required option. A relatively stable development platform is needed. Containers, virtual environments are available when one needs/wants to break things. > [1] > https://fedoramagazine.org/fedora-present-and-future-a-fedora-next-2014-update-part-ii-whats-happening/ > > -- > Miroslav Suchy, RHCA > Red Hat, Manager, Packit and CPT, #brno, #fedora-buildsys > -- _______________________________________________ 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 Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
