In any case, vendoring in RPM packages may be picking the bad parts from both of those approaches: it has both version explosion, lack of transparency/consistent patching, and no package isolation.
Sure. That's why the system I demonstrated isn't vendoring dependencies in the vLLM RPM. It demonstrates a process whereby that is unnecessary.
*I wonder if it would make sense to require that if an RPM has to vendor something significant, it should become a flatpak.*
Yes, I agree. That's what I demonstrated. But "build a container" or "build a Flatpak" are not complete solutions if the release series required for a build isn't present somewhere.
This project would provide the "somewhere" so that components are available for container/Flatpak builds.
