So sure, we could use something but it doesn't have to start out as some complex fully automatic system. (Would be nice, but...) Can we agree that we'd be at least half of the way there if we just had a well defined way to: * Know what package depend on the one you're updating * Easily bump and chain-build all of that in a side tag Surely there's a reopquery or fedrq command line that will find at least most of what needs to be rebuilt. It doesn't have to be absolutely perfect but it can't be that hard to get close. I know there's a distinction between build and runtime dependencies and rich/conditional dependencies complicate things a bit, but those much smarter than I am must have already figured out how to get something that's at least somewhat useful. Once you have the package list, maybe it needs some kind of sorting before you can just bump and chain-build things, but I think in many cases it doesn't. So, yes, a 100% tool would be really hard but the 80% tool really shouldn't be that bad, and almost any tool would really help people out. - J< -- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
