Um... no. Because enabling development in the first place is a manual step. They are config files. Pushing a release version of fedora-release that blindly turned that off would violate the "don't change users configs if they are modified" rule. And it would piss off the rawhide users that actually _want_ to remain on rawhide and help test the next release of Fedora. Seriously, using rawhide is a manual choice that has to be made and if you want to undo that, it should be manual as well. 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
