I don't think we should do this exactly like a regular mass rebuild: it would create useless churn in the package set, specfile changelogs, etc. What would be useful is to do scratch rebuilds on this sort of schedule, without changing anything in git, and file bugs anytime a rebuild fails. That is more or less what Matt Domsch used to be doing; now that he seems to have stopped, I agree that it would be a good thing for the Fedora project to start doing it officially. regards, tom lane -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
