That is what killed the group tag and comps groups as generic ways to declare package grouping BTW. RPM maintainers were long opposed to metapackages, but in the end metapackages offer more packager flexibility, and appear as normal objects in the dependency graph, meaning you can do things with them you could never achieve with an out-of-graph Comps/Tag group. -- Nicolas Mailhot _______________________________________________ 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
