I tend to agree here - personally I think one sensible default configuration is sufficient, and then let users adjust/taylor that configuration for their needs. RPM is the wrong layer for configuration management IMO - this also pertains to the recent discussions regarding diverging configs for the different projects. RPM should lay down files, and then a proper config management service should configure/customise software (Puppet,ansible, what have you). -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
