It wouldn't matter in practice, because I think I would say no matter what you do, you have to fix %gpgverify too. With my FESCo hat on, I don't see myself reasonably considering to approve this change. The rationale is too weak. If you want to introduce an *additional* interface, sure, whatever. But as it stands, this juice is not worth the squeeze. And calling it %openpgpverify is just nonsense. *If* I were to accept a rename of the macro, I would *only* reasonably consider %pgpverify, since that's the name of the format. And even beyond that, GPG is deeply embedded as the name in the ecosystem. Even if we're not using GnuPG, we're not going to go through and do hundreds of API/ABI breaks across the ecosystem just for a rename. Don't make it harder on us unless there's a seriously compelling reason. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! -- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] 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/[email protected] Do not reply to spam, report it: https://forge.fedoraproject.org/infra/tickets/issues/new
