Fedora Packaging Guidelines for Medical

Follow the common Fedora Packaging Guidelines.

In this page, we note the Medical specific topics.

Naming

• For the newly created package, check if it exists in Debian or openSuSE packaging directories, and consider to align the package name with them. It helps users.
  • Debian: Debian - Search package directories, Debian Med Packages
  • openSuSE: openSuSE - Search packages

Tips

• For Review Process - Review swaps, mailing to the medical-sig mailing list might help you.
• After you have a git repository for your package and build your package, consider to announce it at the medical-sig mailing list and enable Koschei (example: https://koschei.fedoraproject.org/package/bwa - Scheduler parameters - Tracked by Koschei: True). Then the package is tagged as a proper category, and managed on the category list.
