It probably didn't help that the mass rebuild came right after the mass orphaning. I've picked up and started retiring a few packages that should have died a while ago but didn't; it's easy enough to retire in pkgdb and git now, but still takes far too long to have packages blocked in koji. And "pkgdb-cli unorphan" doesn't seem to understand the difference between orphaned and retired - it was quite happy to "unorphan" packages that had been properly retired. -- Iain. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
