When these changes (affecting RDEPEND) are made without a new revision, commit cf84f5f2ec43468f080513821b83220a79801ecf Author: Mart Raudsepp <[email protected]> Date: Wed Feb 12 17:47:54 2020 +0200 vala.eclass: raise VALA_MAX_API_VERSION to 0.48 Signed-off-by: Mart Raudsepp <[email protected]> it breaks dependency resolution for everyone who has the package installed. This is already against our written policy, but not in practice, because QA and council members regularly do it themselves. Unless a majority of candidates run for council on the platform of actually doing a good job and/or following the rules, we all just have to live with it forever.
