That's honestly what this sounds like. Conditionals are sometimes wrong, so don't ever use them? I know this message is coming off sounding a bit flippant. I apologize for that, but tone is hard in an email. I understand that you have a personal preference against conditionalizing your spec files. As I said in my previous email: we are going to let you do that manual work if you want to. To me, it seems somewhat nonsensical, but I'm not going to continue to fight to change your mind. _______________________________________________ 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
