Hi All,

F19 has been branched, please be sure to do a git pull --rebase
to pick up the new branch, additionally rawhide/f20 has had
inheritance cut off from previous releases,  so this means that
anything you do for f19 you also have to do in the master branch
and do a build there.
Why was it cut off so soon actually? The reason for disabling
inheritance was due to Bodhi updates, which might not go stable,
if I remember correctly, but Bodhi is not in action yet I suppose,
so the cut of was too soon IMO. Could you please reconsider it?
Thank you.
No, branching is the correct time to do it. Mandated tagging through
koji and inheritance are completely unrelated. At the moment koji
tags the packages straight into f19 rather than tagging to
f19-updates-candidate and having bodhi deal with the tagging.

Inheritance only affect whether something is built in f19 is
inherited through to rawhide. There was a discussion some time ago
about this so presumably this change was either a decision by
release engineering or FESCo.
I am afraid that the discussion was more generic, i.e. "Rawhide
should not inherit from branched Fedora" and since I remember the
main reason for breaking inheritance was Bodhi and Bodhi is not yet
in a game, it should be clarified and adjusted.

i was asked to cut it at branching time, thats exactly what I did


Dennis, I don't blame you, but since you refer the ticket here, I can easily quote:

> However, this also means users using branched updates-testing get newer packages than rawhide, > and rawhide lags behind on fixes until those updates are promoted into updates or the base branched
> repo. Sometimes this delay is quite long during freezes.

And this exact point does not apply yet and nobody realized that. I opened new ticket for FESCo to re-evaluate it.
