Well, but maintainers *did*, back before we had autopush. You might just as well say "a maintainer would not normally enable autopush if they're submitting an update that depends on another update that is not yet stable", because they shouldn't. But they do. All the time. Maintainers get stuff wrong sometimes. We've tweaked the mechanisms in various ways for more than a decade and that hasn't stopped happening yet. Even if we changed Bodhi to precisely your preferred configuration, I'm gonna posit that maintainers would still manage to get stuff wrong sometimes. :) -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA IRC: adamw | Twitter: adamw_ha https://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
