https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=816124 --- Comment #19 from Jindrich Novy <[email protected]> 2012-05-04 09:11:06 EDT --- These policies do not fit to the purpose of this new package. Many libdb dependent packages have dependencies to db4 (and db4-devel) just because the package just needs libdb and package maintainers do not know there exist "libdb" package which ships non-obsolete version. Note it is properly communicated on fedora-devel. The plan is to remove compat-db and db4 and introduce libdb4 package which will break deps of all db4* packages so that maintainers are to decide whether they need libdb ver. 4 or 5 and rebuild their package against one of these. If libdb4 correctly obsoletes db4 and compat-db then nothing happens and we end up with dozens of packages dependent on obsolete libdb for no reason shipping libdb4 forever. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ package-review mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/package-review
