With Koji, it is pretty easy to find out EXACTLY what packages were in the buildroot to build any given package. The dist tag is not necessary for guessing. All your above scenarios are valid, and can be mitigated by on the side continuous rebuilds of packages to identify when changes might happen, which would allow the maintainers and release team to make decisions as to which packages should be rebuilt for a new build chain. It does not mean we should just blanket rebuild everything just because we can and there could POTENTIALLY be issues in SOME packages. -- Jesse Keating Release Engineer: Fedora
