Porting Fedora to Modern C

This page collects some technical details related to Changes/PortingToModernC.

Cross-Distribution Collaboration

A mailing list has been set up to exchange issues and observations of wider interest: c-std-porting@lists.linux.dev (archive)

Further resources will follow as needed.

Fedora Bug Tracking

Not every build issue will have a bug in Bugzilla. But if there is no upstream with a mailing list or issue tracker to submit fixes to, it makes sense to create a bug in Bugzilla, especially for cross-distribution collaboration.

Currently, these trackers exist:

  • PortingToModernC Umbrella tracker for the tracker bugs below.
  • PortingToModernCExemptions Bugs which document that certain packages could not be switched to C99 or later language standards. Typically these packages keep building with -std=gnu89.
  • PortingToModernCHelpNeeded Bugs where help from the package maintainer is needed to address the issue(s).
