If we need to rebuild glibc then Nanar really shouldn't be rebuilding things with the new rpm just for the hell of it, especially not things that are required to build stuff. And especially not things that are in main. It's really absurd to be breaking stuff that doesn't need to be broken... And if all glibc needs is a rebuild so it provides the new devel stuff why hasn't it been done already and for that matter why didn't Nanar do it when he rebuilt elfutils? This all seems rather haphazard to me. If we're going to be making changes that break things and require rebuilding to fix then either a script should be written to do all the rebuilds so everything gets rebuilt promptly. Or we need to have an explanation of the migration. Yeah it's cooker, but if we break stuff we need to cook it is rather silly. And I have no idea who Andi is or what I'd be getting him started about. I'm just trying to get some packages updated that I haven't done because I've been busy. I finally find time to do it and someone goes and breaks rpmlint so I can't ensure my packages are good. The way I see it if you break something then you need to fix it and fix it promptly. -- Ben Reser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://ben.reser.org "What upsets me is not that you lied to me, but that from now on I can no longer believe you." -- Nietzsche
