Agreed. The biggest problem we have in this regard IMHO is that we
always communicate "you can't get to stable release from rawhide or a
test release". That scares people aways from the devel branch and the
test releases. We should provide a clean solution so people at least can
get from test3 to stable.
No, you should provide a clean path from every package ver X to every
package ver X+1. Period. [...]
Actually I'd like to see this, too, but Fedora people seem to be so
unwilling to support something like that so I tried the "better ask for
something that's not that hard to realize and lies between the current
solution and the best/ideal solution; maybe then the chances to get what
we ask for are higher and it make one big part of the problem go away,
even if parts of the problem remain"-approach ;-)
I've been annoyed with Red Hat's prior stance where mistakes (like "pre"
within version or bad epochs) that happened during rawhide are rolled
back silently. This makes it impossible for folks using rawhide to
continue upgrading in a smooth and automated fashion.
In the past two years we've been doing a lot less of this, but it still
happens. We really have to stop this entirely.
