--- Comment #1 from James Read <contact(a)jread.com> ---
Hey folks, my first Fedora package, for an application I wrote called OliveTin
(
http://olivetin.app or
http://github.com/OliveTin/OliveTin ).
The package builds on my machine with mock, and tested it for functionality
against an unmodified Fedora 36 libvirt VM, where it seems to work well.
rpmlint passes without any issues raised. I've read through the Fedora
packaging guidelines as best I can over the last few days, and don't think
there are any outstanding issues.
I'd like to raise to your attention, that OliveTin "tracks" versions as part
of
update checking, and sends an installation ID (random UUID) as part of that
checking/tracking. This is on by default (but absolutely can be disabled), and
is documented with as much information as possible here;
https://docs.olivetin.app/update-tracking.html . It was unclear if the Fedora
project would consider this an issue as I didn't find a guideline against it.
If it's an issue for Fedora the default config file can be patched to disable
that behavior, but I'm hoping it can be left enabled as it really helps me
understand how many old versions are out there in the wild (and how long to
support them). How the data is used, and how it works is documented in detail
at the above link.
Lastly, the very awesome Fabio Alessandro “Fale” Locati has been kind enough to
offer his time to help me build the first package, and I know him well. He's
offered to be a sponsor/reviewer.
