If the issue is "too much breakage", how can we ensure the most annoying issues are prevented ( I am pretty confident in autoQA personnaly ) ?
Well one issue is packagers not doing rawhide builds. This has two issues. One is that rawhide doesn't pick up fixes in updates-testing so doesn't get the latest updates. The other is that the packages aren't built against rawhide libraries which can cause breakage when libraries change.
And also, if rawhide start to be more used, we should ensure if doesn't divde the community in 2 groups ( as I have seen some people complain on others distributions that stable release are neglected because devs run "$dev_distro" and not the stable release )
In Fedora's case the problem is reversed. Rawhide doesn't get enough attention. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
