Journal Vitus Wagner's Journal: catdoc RPM

Some guy sent me src rpm for my latest revision of catdoc.

What the silly idea!

If he send me just a .spec, I might to check in
it into CVS. But to send me 147K of my own sources?

Really I prefer not to provide any packages of
my software. Just the source tarballs.

Packages are distribution-specific thing. I'm not sure that spec file developed for RedHat would suit ALT Linux or
SuSE.

Moreover, the more eyeballs you have the more shallow are bugs. I even do not make Debian packages myself, although I keep unofficial Debian repository. I prefer Pawel Wiecek to
look upon my code before it enters distribution.
