Dear guys,
I took over cpan2rpm and now these bugs have been filed:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=158702 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=158704 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=158708 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=158709
What is the procedure for patching code?
Should I keep patches local to our RPM, our send them to the author and get a new release of the core package?
Thanks.

In the short term it is easier to just patch our Extras package and rebuild into the repository, but be sure you also try to get the patches into upstream, so *somebody else* maintains it in the long term instead of you.
What do you mean by "core package"? Is this Core or Extras?
If it is core, prep a SRPM for me, post it and assign the bug to me and I'll apply to Core CVS and build.

Fine.

I mean the main software, i.e. cpan2rpm, not cire Fedora.
If it is core, prep a SRPM for me, post it and assign the bug to me and I'll apply to Core CVS and build.
