The mass submits of Haskell into openSUSE:Factory are worrying. In the old days, if a CPAN package was missing, that was unfortunate, but easily fixable: make one. Automatically converted packages later started showing up in devel:languages:perl:CPAN-*. Obscure packages that no one ever cared about or even considered using for just a single minute never entered Factory, and all was great.
Submitting devel:languages:haskell (or devel:languages:perl:CPAN) unattended-ly is worrying. Except of course than CPAN is -not- submitted to Factory like haskell at all. I find it highly questionable to submit every possible bitrotten Hello World module on the planet that has ever been made. That is certainly what it feels like.
Just something to think about.
Same sentiment here. This keeps so many people busy reviewing - and I wonder what the net benefit to how many users is. Greetings, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
