Frequently Asked Questions

What is the errata policy for The Fedora Project?

Info Kairali - Linux - Fedora Project
Security updates, bugfix updates, and new feature updates will all be available, through Red Hat and third parties. Updates may be staged (first made available for public qualification, then later for general consumption) when appropriate. In drastic cases, we may remove a package from The Fedora Project if we judge that a necessary security update is too problematic/disruptive to the larger goals of the project.

What is the update policy for The Fedora Legacy Project?

The Fedora Legacy Project
In general, we will provide security updates and critical bug fixes for selected versions of Red Hat Linux and Fedora Core. No new features or packages will be introduced except where they are required for future management of updates. In order to publish security packages in a timely manner, they have different priorities. Network exposed services have the highest priority, while client applications have a lower development priority.

Why don't you submit your Redhat rpms into the Fedora project?

Frequently Asked Questions
This will probably happen in the future. I started making the rpms for libferris' dependancies well before Fedora started. There are many rpms that I have for the dependancies for libferris and it will take a while to feed them into the mainline Fedora project. The other point to note is that time spent packaging is time not spent coding and I tend to prefer the latter.

Related Questions

What architectures will be supported by The Fedora Project?

Info Kairali - Linux - Fedora Project
Red Hat will initially focus on the x86 family of architectures. Red Hat may also choose to build Fedora Core for other architectures, and in doing so will focus on architectures in which it has a business interest. This will make it easier to identify and fix bugs; the sooner they are found, the easier it is to isolate the change that caused the bug and therefore the easier it is to fix. Other community members are welcome to participate in building for other architectures.

How does Fedora Project ensure the quality of the packages in EPEL?

EPEL/FAQ - Fedora Project Wiki
Packages are peer reviewed against extensive packaging guidelines before being imported into the repository. Only updates that fix important bugs get pushed to the stable repository directly. Other updates hit a testing repository first and get released as an EPEL scheduled update in parallel with the EL scheduled updates. Packages often are tested in Fedora, too. The Fedora Packaging Guidelines and QA team back up all these efforts, helping to avoid errors.
