Thank you for doing this! Also I hope it is ok if I pick your brain a bit on a java packaging issue which I've been having. I maintain a couple of java leave packages (games) + some deps which AFAIK are only used by these games. One of these deps (dom4j) has been FTBFS since F34: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1923601 I've been looking into this and the actual problem seems to be with Java 9 now including what once was the org.relaxng.datatype except they did not just bundle it, they also changed where it sits in the namespace to com.sun.tools.rngdatatype <sigh> Just doing a s/org.relaxng.datatype/com.sun.tools.rngdatatype/ got me a bit further, but it seems that msv, which is a dep of dom4j needs to be rebuild first with the same search-replace done on it and the FTBFS bug of msv is stuck because of one of its deps getting orphaned+retired : https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1923446 So I think I can fix this by: 1. Unorphaning jvnet-parent, which is the missing msv dep 2. Do a s/org.relaxng.datatype/com.sun.tools.rngdatatype/ in msv, rebuild 3. Do a s/org.relaxng.datatype/com.sun.tools.rngdatatype/ in dom4j, rebuild And then either do this only for rawhide, or push all 3 modified packages to F34 in a single bodhi update. Mikolaj, does this sounds like a reasonable plan to you; or should I approach this differently? Also if yes this is a reasonable plan any advice on also pushing the fixed packages to F34, or not ?
