I don't accept your claim that these are the most common used packages to build our rpms.
These tools have been around since the early days of UNIX and have been used every since... so whether you accept that or not is.... well... indifferent...
They should be viewed just like any other build requirement and listed as such. For you its two auto* packages. To somebody else, it's just pkgconfig, to yet another person its just intltool and gettext, so on and so forth. The line has to be drawn somewhere and it has been drawn.
Personally I think we should a bit more flexible and open to consider adding packages that have very real potential of stopping undetectable rpm corruption. Call me crazy... but I think thats a good idea verses sticking to a policy that allows corruption... steved. -- Fedora-maintainers mailing list Fedora-maintainers@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers -- Fedora-maintainers-readonly mailing list Fedora-maintainers-readonly@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers-readonly
