I would like to point out that all of the above could be simply automated. We have done similar change when we migrated packages from "BuildRequires: maven" to "BuildRequires: maven-local" and it worked without issues. It will save precious developer/rel-eng time and ultimately will only break minimal amount of packages (with simple workarounds and fixes). -- Stanislav Ochotnicky <sochotni...@redhat.com> Software Engineer - Developer Experience PGP: 7B087241 Red Hat Inc. http://cz.redhat.com -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
