Hi Thomas, I just replied to the review ticket about the current situation. With regard to your question about migration: there isn't any clear plan yet to mass-rename all mingw32-* packages. According to the regular proces we've got to file rename requests for all mingw32-* packages and have them re-reviewed. But as we're close to 100 different mingw32-* packages this isn't really a feasible method. Perhaps we can ask FeSCO to give us an exception so we can mass-rename all mingw32-* packages without having to get everything through the review proces again. Kind regards, Erik van Pienbroek _______________________________________________ mingw mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/mingw
