The rebase of fedoradesign/backgrounds (the upstream that becomes f32- backgrounds downstream) to 32 was also quite badly broken, I think. I've sent a PR that I hope fixes it properly: https://github.com/fedoradesign/backgrounds/pull/18 firstly, there were lots of '31's that weren't changed to '32's, including in the XML files used by both KDE and GNOME (of course they don't use the *same* file, that would be too easy). Secondly, the GNOME XML file was not updated at all for the change you mention above (dropping the aspect ratio variant files) - it was still pointing to those files even though they don't exist any more. Consider this my annual reminder that this whole desktop background setup is awful and ridiculously prone to errors like this. It *never works* for a person to manually make all these changes to two separate upstreams and five separate downstreams (f**-backgrounds, desktop- backgrounds, kde-settings, fedora-kickstarts, fedora-comps). It is *always*, *always* done wrong and needs to be fixed, and it is *never ever* co-ordinated well between all the moving parts. Aside from the overall design being awful, the implementation really really needs to not be manual. Why is there not a script that makes all the changes? Why do the upstreams not contain test cases that check that all the things that should be touched on a version rebase are actually changed? Grunt work like this is awful and never done right by humans. It should be done by robots. I can't find the ticket where I went nuts about this before any more, but I've been saying it for a while :P -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
