Description of problem: In an effort to give as much information as possible to users of full releases, i think it would be wise to have a comment block of text describe what each included .repo file is. I think this is especially important for fedora-devel.repo and marginally important for updates-testing.repo, which are not enabled by default. A couple of sentences AND basic instructions on where to file bugs for each repo. For example fedora-devel.repo: [development] #These packages are untested and still under development. This #repository is used for updates to test releases #This repository can see significant daily turn over and can see major #functionality changes which cause unexpected problems with other #development packages. Please use these packages if you want to work #with the fedora Developers by testing these new development packages. # #fedora-test-list mailinglist is available as a discussion forum for #testing and troubleshooting for development packages. # #Reportable issues should be filed at bugzilla.redhat.com #Product: Fedora Core #Version: devel name=Fedora Core $releasever - Development Tree baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/$basearch/ mirrorlist=http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors/fedora-core-rawhide gpgcheck=1 enabled=0 And of course something similar for updates-testing.repo. The idea being give accurate information as to what the repo is used for, some rational risk level assessment and where they should go for discussion and bug reporting. -jef"i didnt even say 'eats babies' in my example text"spaleta
I've stuck this text into the fedora-release module. If people write the actual text for the other .repo files, I can either commit it or just give them direct access to commit (if you join the 'cvsfedora' group in the account system, you'll have commit access).
