Self Introduction: Emmett Boudreau
by Emmett Boudreau
Hello, my name is Emmett Boudreau. I am a statistician and data scientist who has fallen in love with the stability of Fedora over the years. I have been involved with open source software for several years, but only now have desired to be part of a maintenance team for some packages. The main reason I would like to do this is in order to keep the packages on the data science front well-maintained, notably the Julia programming language -- where there could even be installations of different versions. I have found that Fedora is a very popular choice among my colleagues, and I think that keeping these packages in order would make the distribution better overall to work in.
Thank you for your time!

Hi,
SCP is not an internet protocol -- it is simple protocol that is used
inside of encrypted SSH session, similarly to SFTP protocol. The name
comes from RCP which actually was unencrypted internet protocol and
which is hopefully gone.

That is a good question!
When I try to use scp://host/file I am getting errors that vim is trying
to use `rcp` command (yuck!). But using the same with sftp://host/file
works like a charm.
I believe vim is using just scp to fetch the file so if the connection
to the server will work also with sftp, it should continue to work (but
I recommend using sftp protocol anyway).
The simplest way to try is to try with sftp:// or try the previously
mentioned package, but my best bet is that it will keep on working as
before (even though I never used this inside of vim up until today).
Regards,
Jakub

nss vs. nspr - shipping overlapping set of built binary packages?
by Fabio Valentini
Hi everybody,
I just noticed (because of a failed build due to NVR mismatch in an
exact dependency) that *two* packages provide the "nspr" and
"nspr-devel" binary packages - nss and nspr.
Is there a reason for both those packages to exist, if nspr and
nspr-devel are built from the "nss" source package, as well as from
the "nspr" source package? The .spec files do not seem to contain an
explanation.
