No, it rebuilds once a dependency actually changes (if it is rebuild and the resulting RPM is unchanged, then no rebuild is kicked of though). > > I wouldn't want rebuilds "just because." Well, you kinda do want them (in Rawhide) because ABI changes & SONAME bumps are not applicable for all programming languages and then people & tools make mistakes. So a "safe" update without a SONAME bump might be one that actually required one and would be undetected unless you rebuild & retest dependent packages. > _______________________________________________ > 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
