I hope you understand that chasing down every single instance of this situation ultimately leads to a situation that is more easily duplicated by making the build process automatically split every library binary into its own subpackage. If we aren't willing to do that automatically, then why is it worth the time to have multiple individuals systematically chase them down? I'm wary that the sort of checking you want to do is a rabbit hole that will require significant continued human effort as codebases shift. -jef -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
