Packages silently dropping approved changes

Hi all, Many of you know that proposing, discussing, and implementing a change proposal is quite an effort, especially if you do this in your spare time. I did this some releases ago in [1] to try to improve the situation regarding BLAS/LAPACK management in Fedora. It wasn't easy, but it was a success, and now we have specific packaging guidelines [2] and one of the best BLAS/LAPACK stacks out there IMHO. Given that this is not so common, I routinely (every now and then, not very often) check for new packages that may not be aware of this guideline, so that they may need adaptation. What I didn't expect was to find already adapted packages silently dropping this change, and going back to linking specific libraries instead of FlexiBLAS. :( I assume their maintainers didn't do it on purpose, maybe it was easier for a certain update, didn't have time to look into it and weren't aware of the guideline. But this is very frustrating. Seeing many hours of work just wiped out without any notice or explanation is very frustrating. I opened the corresponding BZ [3-4], but it would be great if these checks and BZ could be automated somewhere. If so, please let me know where the proper place for this is and I'll open an issue.
