I actually had a much longer reply to Adam's mail that I'd started to write around how *exactly this* user problem with versions and downgrades is what I was talking about in https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/QEAKRLJTCNOFOCILDSLKWYHKTHVNRSUX/ And it's why in FCOS we have a unified stream of versions and images, downgrading or picking an explicit version is a first class supported operation client side too, etc. And on top of what you both mentioned, particularly relevant for IoT and phones, it's also a 1st class operation to e.g. build custom images/ostree-commits on a separate aarch64 server for example, avoiding doing expensive operations on-device. But then I decided it was just more useful to write code and deleted the draft. Honestly sometimes I hit low points of energy and motivation trying to push through fundamental change against the forces of inertia. Your replies recharged that battery. Thank you so much for that! _______________________________________________ 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
