Hi folks,

I'm the Tor project leader, Roger Dingledine ("the upstream").

I've been trying to keep an eye on this discussion. What I most want
from this is an rpm that I can point people running Red Hat like systems
to. So anything that confuses people on various RPM-based systems is
bad. (This seems to include the lsb stuff, if what Kevin says is right.)

(Enrico's point about running the RPM on a system without gcc, make, etc
is odd, since most people I know use their computer for many things at
once.)

We currently ship an RPM spec file that seems to work pretty well. The
only problem is that we don't have an official unified maintainer that
we know to maintain it, build new RPMs, and so on. Keeping the Fedora
Extras spec similar to this would help in sending patches upstream
and downstream.

I'm also concerned about dependencies like fedora-groupadd. Is this
going to be an RPM that is only useful for people running a particular
configuration of Fedora, or can we make it more general? If it is too
niche, then we will end up with competing RPMs, which is bad.
