If the issues this update was solbing really bothered them, they would have provided feedback earlier. I maintain some niche packages that almost no one uses/no one would provide karma for. But if I'm asked for a bugfix, and I do it, I want the people requesting it to tell me that it indeed fixes the issue and doesn't break anything else. Why would I bother if they don't care? ---------- Mathieu Bridon -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
