After we tried the first mass rebuild of ELN packages in a sidetag, several issues were found by gcc maintainers. Jeff has more info on that, but afaiu one issue is related to glib2 and waits for the upstream fix. Once the issue is fixed we may try new ELN mass-rebuild in the sidetag, before doing any real updates in the buildroot itself. Exact timing is yet to be defined. We will be running this mass rebuild with the lowest priority, so that it won't get in the way of regular Fedora builds. (We had a misconfiguration in the rebuild script, which caused the queue on the build system before. This issue is now fixed) -- Aleksandra Fedorova bookwar _______________________________________________ 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
