Hi, Hughsie's GNOME 3.12 copr has seen quite a bit of publicity recently. >From what I can tell, people who have managed to get it installed are generally happy, but a number of people have also run into rpm dep hell while updating, and gone back to F20 proper. Last night, adamw pointed out the fedoramagazine article about GNOME 3.12 [1] and asked if I could look through the broken dep issues mentioned in the article comments and rebuild the packages in the copr. At first, I went ahead and rebuilt a few, but then realized this doesn't really scale. We are only going to be playing catch up with F20 proper when new builds that use old cogl / tracker / gnome-bluetooth / gnome-desktop / evolution-data-server libraries are pushed out to updates. I spent some time today on this and built parallel installable compat packages with the 3.10 ABI for those libraries. This is hopefully enough to get out of the dep hell and the need of constant rebuilds in the copr. What would be a good way to manage the git repos for such compat packages? So far, the copr has only gotten straight rebuilds of rawhide packages and we haven't had a need for separate git branches. I guess I could create special f20-gnome-3-12 branches for those 5 in git, or would it be weird to have something in pkgdb git that's only meant for copr?
