I&#39;m agree with this opinion as i wrote a minute ago to the UK user<br>
community? subject. But as you know we, therd party packagers are not<br>
well experienced packagers. An official packager should review our<br>
packages and aasist to correct issues. So, we can learn more and<br>
provide better packages. As a result users can reach their needs from<br>
official contrib or communtiy repo.<br>

<div><div></div><div class="h5">&gt; I totally agree with Thomas,<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; as some may know, the German community has their own repo as well. The reason<br>
&gt; was the somehow difficult procedure in contributing packages to Mandriva.<br>
&gt; But: we have decided to contribute to mageia directly in the future. Like<br>
&gt; Thomas said, many Third-party repos make it difficult for the users to find and<br>
&gt; install packages. It also leads to dependency problems sometimes, when<br>
&gt; packages from different third party repos collide.<br>
&gt; And even if there are packages which are only of use to people with some<br>
&gt; language, nationality and so on. Why shouldn&#39;t they be in the official repos.<br>
&gt; E.g. I don&#39;t speak any asian language but the tools for those languages did<br>
&gt; never disturb me. They were just there in the repo without ane sideeffects to<br>
&gt; my system...<br>

&gt;&gt; &gt; Also local communities can package software just for their needs and<br>
&gt;&gt; &gt; won&#39;t placed in official repos. Like we providing Zekr (Quran study<br>
&gt;&gt; &gt; tool) and zemberek (Turkish spell-checking tool) on Mandriva Turkiye<br>
&gt;&gt; &gt; repository (MVT)<br>
&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; Just a not : I am against this form of packaging only for a group of<br>
&gt;&gt; people. Anywhere in the world someone who wants to study a language,<br>
&gt;&gt; turkish for xample, may need it. Currently we need to focus all our<br>
&gt;&gt; efforts in Mageias official repositories and avoid as much as possible<br>
&gt;&gt; having too many different repositories. Programs are usually not<br>
&gt;&gt; territory dependant.<br>
&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; That&#39;s out of subject anyway, but I wanted to tell clearly my opinion on<br>
&gt;&gt; this. Remember : Mageia takes back the same spirit of easy to use and<br>
&gt;&gt; simplicity that comes form Mandriva and Mandrake. Fiddling with many<br>
&gt;&gt; extra repositories is then what we do not want to hear about. This would<br>
&gt;&gt; even force people to be members or to visit the website to add the repo<br>
&gt;&gt; and then access te program they were looking for. So, that&#39;s just no to me.<br>
