Such a rebuild thus will fail on rawhide currently due to gcc7 :-/ ran into this on x86-32/-64 when building by vanilla packages. No big deal for me, nevertheless a quick question: Until a year or two ago that didn't happen: The spec file had a few tricks to apply some of the patches (for example those that fix know build/compiler problems) all the time. That was lost when the spec file switched to using "git am %{patches}" to apply patches. Was that intentional? Laura, Justin: Would you be open to reintroduce and use a similar method that would apply certain patches all the time? If yes I'd might look into this sooner or later, as it would make my life easier.
