During the last year I've submitted some game packages for review, and participated in
the review of a few games - and one thing that has resulted in a bit of a tug-of-war was
the fact that the Games SIG packaging guidelines say "Spec group file:
Amusements/Games", whereas the main guidelines say "The group: tag SHOULD NOT be
used".
I took a look at "SIG/Games/Packaging" page [1] on the Fedora wiki, and it seems
to be quite old - the revision history says the last edit was made in May 2008, which
places it at close to 10 years old.
Could we possibly revise the packaging guidelines to make sure they don't contradict
the general guidelines - and if they do, have a clear "yes, this contradicts the main
guidelines, do it either way" message? I imagine there might be some other issues on
the wiki page that need tweaking - e.g. I don't see all the games I have installed on
my system following the "OpenGL wrapper" section. Is this something that's
no longer done, or does it still apply and it's the packages that should be fixed?
Thanks,
A.I.
