That is a good point. It's obviously the case that a new package can't be less functional than the non-existent package it replaces, but there's also a risk that a new package could break other packages that are already installed - which is basically a way of me saying "I don't know yet", and I hope that we can sort that out with some further discussion. The real risk I see with blocking new packages is that there's much less chance for them to get external testing. -- Matthew Garrett | mjg59@xxxxxxxxxxxxx -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
