Of course, you had the option of not pulling the new OpenSceneGraph back to F16, or simply not doing so yet. Particularly during a phase where people are trying to keep change to a minimum so we know what we're working with. I'm sorry that you don't understand release engineering, but since you insist on not understanding it I don't really have any sympathy for your packages being so visibly at fault for breakages. - ajax -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
