I have backported Factory of 0.4.0 to 10.2 with the cost of dropping making of documentation and %if -ing a lot of stuff. Also I have set a dependancy on hicolor-theme 0.10 due to the missing icons otherwise. You can find both in my Home Project - http://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=f-spot&project=home%3Ai-nZ.
Are you okay if I update f-spot in GNOME:Community, which is a quite old version (0.2.2) ?
Sure. At some point though we need to develop a policy for what goes in to G:C and what distros we're going to try and support (10.2 obviously qualifies).
End-user packages that do not have problematic requirements on newer libraries, if there is significant functionality enhancements in a newer version than the one shipping in the current stable distribution?
Not sure how that would affect older distributions, though. Perhaps rebase the G:C package on the stable RPM everytime the stable version is bumped?
Can you start a wiki page with the proposed policy? That way we can
easily modify it over tim.
In fact that brings up a how-can-we-better-add-and-organize GNOME
information. Possibilities:
GNOME (master page)
GNOME/Team
(replacing GNOME_Team)
GNOME/Packaging
(info like %gconf* links, general packaging and any GNOME specific
policies we might have)
GNOME/Build Service
(description of the 3 main repos and policies regarding them)
GNOME/Tasks
(list of things we gnomers need to do with owners, like maybe create a
G:C policy owned by Michel :-) )
GNOME/Roadmap
(future planning info - Magnus where did your 10.3 notes go?)
GNOME/Plans
(maybe something similar to ubuntu blue prints)
GNOME/Wiki
(keep this plan in it!)
Any thoughts?
