Meeting minutes and full logs of the packaging committee meeting which
occurred on 2007-06-19 are online:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Minutes
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Minutes20070619
(Actually, they should be online soon; the wiki is behaving badly at
the moment.)
Executive summary:
The following drafts are now official guidelines, having been accepted
by FESCO last week:
* Corrections to the scriptlets:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/ScriptletSnippetsFixes
* OCaml guidelines:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/OCaml
* Revisions to the rule on directory ownership:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/
These should be written into the guidelines soon if this hasn't
already been done by the time you read this.
Issues pending FESCO ratification:
* Blanket exception for linking against libraries that are only
available as static, and initialCC requirement.
* http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/StaticLibraryChanges
* Accepted (6 - 0)
Misc business:
* Allowing SCM commit ID information into the release tag:
* http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/CommitIDs
* The draft is being modified significantly to remove pointless stricture.
