If you haven't built anything explicitly for Rawhide since the branch point, the stable packages from the branched repo will be inherited into rawhide. You still should merge your changes from the branch up to master (for rawhide) but there is no reason to do a build. Let the build system inheritance take care of that. One change to make this better might be to move the inheritance point to updates-testing so that things built from the fresh branch are immediately inherited into rawhide. - jlk -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
