But from a critpath perspective, this update is okay as long as dependent critpath apps still work. It would be nice if Bodhi could say 'this update is critical path because of the following dependency chain:', but I don't know how practical that is... -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
