    Guidelines for Naming Fedora Packages

    When naming packages for Fedora, the maintainer must use the dash '-' as the delimiter for name parts. The maintainer must NOT use an underscore '_', a plus '+', or a period '.' as a delimiter. Version numbers used in compat libraries do not need to omit the dot '.' or change it into a dash '-' (see Multiple packages with the same base name for more info on this case).

    There are a few exceptions to the no underscore '_' rule.

    • httpd, pam, and SDL addon packages are excluded, refer to " Addon Packages (httpd, pam and SDL) ".
    • packages that are locale specific, and use the locale in the name are excluded, refer to " Addon Packages (locale) ".
    • Compat packages where the base package name ends in a digit. refer to " Multiple packages with the same base name"
    • packages where the upstream name naturally contains an underscore are excluded from this. Examples of these packages include:

    If there is not an issue open for that can your file one. This issue was for RedHat packages.
