--- Comment #10 from Ben Beasley <[email protected]> --- Please re-read the guidelines around bundled dependencies carefully; I think you have some misunderstandings. When you bundle dependencies, Fedora doesn’t require you to install the bundled dependencies as “extra libs”, i.e., separate shared libraries. It requires the following: 1. Upstream does not support building with an external copy of the dependency. If it did, you would NOT be permitted to bundle, no matter how inconvenient the extra packaging might be. 2. You have publicly contacted upstream about a path to supporting system libraries; and if upstream refused, recorded it in a comment or in a source file referenced from a comment adjacent to the virtual Provides. 3. You have added the appropriate virtual Provides to your spec file. These are just metadata, which allow bundling to be tracked. Having followed these steps, you are NOT required to patch the build system in any way. I know dealing with bundled dependencies is a perennial pain, but you have to fully understand the guidelines around them and pick one of the permissible options. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
