I mean that when a larger and larger package set needs bootsrapping due to upstream practices, we can't continue to have koji and mock treat it like a weird exception that can be dealt with by manual packager handling Yes the packager has to document the bootstraping recipe in the spec, but the tools should apply it automatically when normal builds fails, not rely on manual switching of with/without bootstrap variables by the packager, or manual computation of mass rebuild execution plans. -- Nicolas Mailhot _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
