Well, I didn't really comment about those that are outside the "home directories", so I don't see how you read agreement into what I said. In fairness, I never really knew there was an area outside the home directories. Given that there is (apparently), it again would come down to understanding how much testing goes into those repositories. As I wrote to Christian a minute ago, there are so many permutations of repos that can be selected, is it a reasonable assumption that they're all tested with each other on all platforms? Maybe, maybe not, but that's a judgment call I think each user should make. That's not to say they shouldn't make it without some understanding of how things are done. Suppose I install only from official repos, but I want the nxclient RPM from nomachine.com - does that now invalidate the *entire* configuration from being "official" in some way?
All i'm saying is that for those general projects a (much) higher standard of quality / stability should be observed.
Now *that* I don't disagree with, so long as those general projects are managed in an appropriate manner.
