There are only two ways to do that: 1) Rebase the release branch in git to 4.3 and then build. 2) Build from a stabilization branch with a release target 1 is a no-go because if we aren't committing to the rebase offically, it makes doing fixes on that branch extremely difficult. 2 can be done (at least to my knowledge there are no checks in koji for git branches), but having it in koji as a random one-off build is also strange. As a random aside, I would much rather decouple kernel release and Fedora release entirely but our tooling doesn't easily allow it. > >One could use this COPR to get a stable > >kernel I guess, but it would involve manual installation if they're > >already on 4.4-rcX because RPM would view the COPR builds as older. > > Nodebug ( for kernel testing ) or fetch from koji specific built is > how people are ( and where taught when I was ambassador ) how to get > these things if they needed a specific build. Yes, in the past. COPR didn't exist in the past. It was created, in part, to do things just like we're doing now. It certainly is different, but I don't see a reason not to use new tools available to us. josh _______________________________________________ kernel mailing list kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
