I think it is important to document what a hardened build means, in the change request as well as provide a pointer from the packaging guidelines. It's no much point mentioning hardened builds but no-one can find out what are these flags and the rationale of being added to this set. Currently it was implied they were flags to enable position independent code, but as it seems there are other flags in this set too. regards, Nikos -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
