Right now, we have the following: F13 branched tree: fedora-release - enabled - points to F13 fedora-release-rawhide - disabled - points to rawhide Rawhide: fedora-release - enabled - sets releasever to 14, ergo points to rawhide fedora-release-rahwide - disabled - points to rawhide This would imply that fedora-release-rawhide doesn't serve much purpose *in* rawhide. So, I'm wondering if we might want to do this differently. Proposal: don't ship fedora-release-rawhide at all. To move between streams, run "yum --releasever <whatever> install/upgrade fedora-release" Going over the various usage cases: 1) Release has not yet branched, want to switch, or use rawhide packges Currently: yum install fedora-release-rawhide yum --enablerepo=rawhide ... New: yum --releasever=<next> ... 2) Release has branched; want to pull from never-frozen rawhide devel stream. Currently: yum install fedora-release-rawhide yum --enablerepo=rawhide ... New: yum --releasever=<next> ... 3) You're on rawhide, the release has branched, you want to go to the stable release. Currently: If you don't have rawhide enabled, do nothing - this happens automatically. If you do have rawhide enabled: ... you're kind of screwed. New: Do nothing - this happens automatically. 4) You're on rawhide, the release has branched, and you want to *stay* on rawhide. Currently: If you're using fedora-release-rawhide to be on rawhide, do nothing. If you're using fedora-release + MM: yum install fedora-release-rawhide yum --enablerepo=rawhide upgrade New: yum --releasever=<next> upgrade Am I missing something? Do people think this would be better, or worse? Bill -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
