#2025: Too hard to build dependent packages in stable -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: hadess | Owner: rel-eng(a)lists.fedoraproject.org Type: enhancement | Status: new Milestone: | Component: koji Keywords: | -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- It's too complicated, human-dependent, and time-consuming to build interdependent package updates in stable releases. Two cases: * gstreamer and gstreamer-plugins-base are released at the same time, and so are pre-releases of those. They soft-depend on each other (gstreamer can be updated on its own). It's currently not possible for me to offer both pre-releases of gstreamer and gsteamer-plugins-base without either: 1. asking for a package to be tagged into the build roots 2. pushing gstreamer into stable (takes a few days at best), and push the gstreamer-plugins-base package separately * gnome-bluetooth and gnome-phone-manager, where I need to ask for gnome- bluetooth to be pushed into the buildroot tree. Sometimes that just doesn't work (as could have been seen in http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/F11/FEDORA-2009-7140 / https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/1945 and http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=112091 ) -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/2025> Fedora Release Engineering <http://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng> Release Engineering for the Fedora Project
