[Geany-Users] Fedora 25 Repo is Missing geany-plugins

Greetings,

just to clarify the situation, I actually am the Fedora packager of Geany
and Geany-Plugins. Even if there probably is a syntax issue in the RPM
Specfile - which is stated by rpmlint you see some more information about
this update, beneath some others, the fact that it is available in the
stable Fedora repositories. There is no single Fedora package of
Geany-Plugins. It is intended (and usual on Fedora) to install stuff this
way:

    sudo dnf install 'geany-plugins-*'


Regards,
Dominic
