Getting a package into Fedora takes more than writing a spec file, and Jakub Kadlčík has spent a decade figuring out exactly where the friction is.
As a Copr developer and maintainer, Jakub has been building tools to fix the parts of Fedora packaging that frustrate contributors. Join us as we learn how Jakub:
* Introduced automated CI to the package review queue
* Made a sponsor-finder tool for new contributors
* Thinks we should move to Forgejo (npub12r3…zz58)
