Hi,
first of all, I would like to apologize for the mess I've caused by the jasper
.so name bump in Rawhide. I entirely forgot the side-tag option and had the old
mindset of having rawhide as a "sandbox for new features". I wrote to Miro
already as I am not part of the proven packager group to assist me with the
update - specifically with package rebuild.
On the other hand, I have to partially agree with Kevin Koffler in the way that
making library upgrade in the rawhide from a regular maintainer point of view
is still quite painful and from discussion with my colleagues it seems that I
am not the only one who feels it that way.
Mostly, simple rebuild of dependent packages is all that is needed, but to
achieve it, I have to either communicate with all other maintainers (where
their number might be quite huge and not all of them are able to react in
meningul timeframe - agree it's not applicable with handful of dependent
packages, where it is easy to get it done) or bother some proven packager to do
the rebuilds on my behalf (which is something I don't like, as the workload is
transferred to someone, who has enough of his/her own tasks already).
It would be awesome to have some bot available for all Fedora maintainers,
which would have proven packagers rights and it's only function would be ->
bump spec file and build (e.g. in specific side-tag). In that way, for most
library updates this would be the easiest way, how to get them into Fedora and
bother other maintainers/proven packagers as little as possible.
Considering most of the dependent packages failed to rebuild in this case, I am
not sure how a robot would be supposed to deal with this :(
Successful rebuilds (jasper+5):
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/builds?inherited=0&tagID=50649&order=-build_id&latest=1
Still in progress:
gdal (already succeeded on some architectures)
Failed twice (13):
LibRaw
OpenSceneGraph
digikam
eccodes
gegl04
grads
grib_api
kdelibs
kdelibs3
ncl
qt5-qtimageformats
qt6-qtimageformats
wgrib2
If somebody wants to help, build in f37-build-side-50649 please.
