Hi all,
Please could someone point me to / summarise the process for secondary arch-specific bugs? I'll raise issues on bugzilla if appropriate, but I wanted to check if there's something specific for Fedora ARM when the issue doesn't occur on i386 / x86_64.
(The specific issue is with Firefox: Ubuntu have seen this one too [1], but the fix of playing with -O2 / -O doesn't have any effect on F13 -- unsurprisingly.)
Thanks, Matthew

By default the package needs to be fixed/updated by the package maintainers, interacting with them is normally done over bugzilla. So the best way is to open bugs against the package. Make sure that the packager/developer knows how to build (test)packages for ARM so that you can offer to test, and they can build them: - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Package_Maintainers
When you file bugs, make sure that you set the bug 'ARMTracker' as a blocker. This will make it possible to list all the ARM-affecting bugs in a nice way: - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/showdependencytree.cgi?id=ARMTracker&hide_re...
I hope this helps you and wish you good luck! Cheers, Niels

Niels, Gordan -- thank you both for your replies. I'll file the issue on bugzilla shortly.
(I'll also try to build FF4 and see if that issue has magically gone away.)

Usually just report it on bugzilla.redhat.com and set the arch as arm9. That's what I do. But my experience with FF is that it tends to get pushed upstream.
