I think in this case, parallel installable packages would actually make sense here. If the old system needs to be around for a data migration (and it can't do it automatically upon start of the OpenShift cluster services), then parallel installable packages need to be made so that users can do the transition while still being able to access the old version's data. > Of course, I may have been reading the original comment differently than > intended; it sounded like "upgrading with these packages installed may break > your cluster".

I just wish people wouldn't cop out on handling upgrades, though... -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/2BSTLN4NRUPQCG4TDQFFJQ3W6URJU64F/
