You too Miro. After reading both of your reasons for doing A), I agree with you both. Unless anyone objects, we'll plan to do option A We only have one package left that fails it's rebuild, python-apsw. I'm hoping someone can figure out the reason for the %checks failling. [1] If we can get that fixed, I'll be all set to do the mass update later today. If we are only going to have these builds in -testing for a couple of weeks, how about we shoot for April 2. I'll be unavailable from March 20-April 2. That would give us 3 weeks. Hopefully by then we would have announcements made letting people know the change is coming.
