If X is orphaned and your package currently (build)requires it.. your package will be affected when it gets dropped. Either you have to help someone take over that package, take that package over yourself, fix the package to not require it, or drop your package. [I am probably missing an option or two but those look like the major ones.] The issue is that we have a tragedy of the commons where the grazing land of deep down packages are burnt out. We either need to take better care of them or all our pasture grazing will fall apart. -- Stephen J Smoogen. _______________________________________________ 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
