Re: [Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Rust-less bootstrapping (Discussion #2234)

2022-10-19 Thread Panu Matilainen
Oh, and that's of course just the "do nothing" scenario. We certainly want to 
keep the crypto provider build-time switchable, so if somebody wants to take, 
say, the existing parser and run with it, they're welcome to do so. I only 
really care about getting it out of *my* hair.

Re: [Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Rust-less bootstrapping (Discussion #2234)

2022-10-19 Thread Panu Matilainen
I don't see an issue. For rpm, there must be a way to build it without Rust, 
this is just for sanity's sake. Those who insist on having signatures all the 
way through (good luck with that), just consider Rust to be a bootstrap 
requirement then. It's a choice, like any other.

[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Rust-less bootstrapping (Discussion #2234)

2022-10-18 Thread Demi Marie Obenour
Bootstrapping without Rust has been mentioned as a requirement on the Fedora 
development mailing list.  However, not being able to verify signatures is a 
very bad idea for security.  This discussion is about trying to resolve this 
conundrum.
