If rebuilt, whose > responsibility is it? If they're built with koji, they get automatically tagged with dist-fc7. Rel-eng will just cherry-pick from there (upon request) and tag the existing package with f7-final. There shouldn't be a rebuild needed to get it into F7. For example, here's a tag request I handled this morning: koji tag-pkg --force f7-final gedit-2.18.0-3.fc7 That took the existing gedit-2.18.0-3.fc7 build that was already tagged with dist-fc7 and tagged it for f7-final. The --force is needed because that tagged is locked. josh -- 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
