Isn't this a workaround for the FPC decision? It kinda means
thousands
of users are going to have problems upgrading to F23, and have to
click a little button to enable a 3rd party copr (which can do pretty
much anything to your system...) which will mean very little to most
people.
Can't someone just tell the FPC they got it wrong in this case? FPC
is
not a useful thing if we're promoting workarounds for our default
product.
FESCo didn't want to overrule FPC on this (in part because none of us
had followed it too closely). That said, I'm raising a discussion to
change the policy rather than work around it. See the devel@ list and
feel free to voice support or disagreement.
