Richard is working on updating Coin to the latest version along with the dependent packages. The PRs were for rawhide. I don't think there's much choice: we need to update to latest versions of packages and rawhide is the appropriate place to do it, and we are early in the release cycle. I merged the PRs without waiting for your confirmation because a) this is rawhide b) Coin4 is ready and built in rawhide, and it is better to get the transition over and done with than wait.
