Introduction

Suppose you really like Fedora, but some package that you use is well behind the latest version. Or perhaps there is some piece of software that you use a lot, but it is not available from Fedora. You think maybe you could do something about it, but the official guide to becoming a Fedora packager is rather daunting. What do you do?

You come here, of course! These pages will walk you through how to accomplish a variety of packaging activities. You can easily skip over the ones you don’t need or already know how to do, and focus on the content that will help you make progress. Please send suggestions for improvement or new content to Jerry James.
