If the package does not have a .centos. in the name (ie,
firefox-52.6.0-1.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm) then we did not modify it, so we
did not change the package in any way. An example of a normal package
would be: liberation-sans-fonts-1.07.2-15.el7.noarch.rpm (no
.el7.centos, just .el7, etc.)
You can report centos bugs (something we have broken and is not
upstream) at https://bugs.centos.org/
If it is an upstream issue, we can't fix it .. if we created the issue,
we will try to fix it.
This is one of many areas where we need community help. Anyone who
wants to can get a bugs.centos.org account and can look at all open
bugs. You can comment on any bug. What we need is the community to see
if they can duplicate the bug in question .. and for people who can test
the same bug in RHEL, please do so. If the bug also appears in RHEL,
create a bug at bugzilla.redhat.com and reference the bugs.centos.org
entry there.
If the bug is present in CentOS Linux and not in RHEL, then add that to
a comment in the bugs.centos.org entry. This kind of thing helps us
greatly as we have a limited number of people who work on the main
CentOS Linux distribution.
So, people who ask .. what can I, as a community member, do to help the
CentOS Project. This is one major way .. get a bugs.centos.org account
and help us figure out if the issue is reproducible, and if it was
introduced by the CentOS build or exists upstream.
Other ways the community can help .. sign up for forums.centos.org and
read issues there and respond. Answer questions on this mailing list
and other centos.org mailing lists. You could also join a SIG
(https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup).
Thanks,
Johnny Hughes
