I basically hate everything that tries and put the upstream (us) in downstream's (distributions) place. It's not our role, and a lot of upstream trying to be "smart" and "help" downstream just end up with a terrible mess that just make everyone's lives harder.
OK, here it *seems* a little less absurd and stop at providing a generic way of describing a package. That *might* be acceptable, if it's properly automated (doesn't require too much maintenance), is of sufficient quality, and is sufficiently tested (BTW, how would we test this?). And hopefully, show some actual cases it would be useful for. --- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
