Do you realise what a dis-service you do to Fedora
by suggesting that because it is free
you shouldn't complain if it doesn't work?
File a bug report but don't get all PO'ed if it doesn't get fixed right
away. You seem to think that Fedora owes you support or something.
In my (very long) experience
the quality of Unix/Linux/RedHat/Fedora is very high
and does not need "salesmen" telling you
that you mustn't expect it to work properly.
All software has bugs.
These are due to mistakes on someone's part,
and should be corrected as soon as possible.
If you can't wait until they are fixed fix them yourself or use
something else. You have a choice.
