There are a number of third-party software repositories for Fedora. They
|
|
|
|
|
typically have more liberal licensing policies and provide software
|
|
|
|
|
packages that Fedora excludes for various reasons. These software
|
|
|
|
|
repositories are not officially affiliated or endorsed by the Fedora
|
|
|
|
|
Project. Use them at your own discretion. A detailed list is maintained
|
|
|
|
|
at https://ask.fedoraproject.org/en/question/39797/[Ask Fedora page]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following repositories are commonly used by end users and do not
|
|
|
|
|
conflict with each other

|
|
|
|
|
* http://rpm.livna.org (Complementary to RPM Fusion)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are a number of other repositories listed below but many of them
|
|
|
|
|
are known to explicitly conflict with each other and hence not
|
|
|
|
|
recommended unless you are a power user and know the technical aspects
|
|
|
|
|
better.

Mixing third party software repositories
|
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We generally do not recommend mixing a lot of third party repositories
|
|
|
|
|
since they might conflict with each other causing instability and hard
|
|
|
|
|
to debug issues. If you are not a technical user, one safer method is to
|
|
|
|
|
not enable the third-party repo by default and instead use the
|
|
|
|
|
`--enablerepo` switch for `yum|dnf`, or a similar method configurable in
|
|
|
|
|
the graphical package manager. There are a number of yum|dnf plugins for
|
|
|
|
|
setting repo priorities or protecting the base packages from being
|
|
|
|
|
obsoleted by third party repositories which are helpful to more
|
|
|
|
|
technical users.
