I think everything is ready now. cargo2rpm v0.1.1, rust-packaging v24, and rust2rpm v24.0.1 will be available in rawhide later today. I have done extensive testing of the new RPM macro and generator implementations in COPR, and have verified that rust2rpm v24 produces spec files that are either equivalent to those from earlier versions, or actually produce working spec files for projects where earlier versions crashed or produced broken spec files. I really hope that this update will not be disruptive, even though almost all of the code involved was either refactored or rewritten entirely. I will monitor koschei for any breakages for a while before I push these updates to stable branches as well (i.e. at least a few days for f38, and even longer for f37 and f36). But why push a big update like that to non-rawhide branches at all, you might ask? First, all these components are either only used at build-time, or are tools which are exclusively used by Rust packagers, so the update should not affect any users of Fedora. Second, without these updates, some Rust libraries will not be update-able in stable branches at all (this might also include security fixes), which is a situation that I would like to avoid. If you spot any regressions that are caused by this update, please either ping me on IRC / Matrix (the low-traffic "Fedora Rust" room is a good choice), or file a ticket on bugzilla or with the upstream project on pagure: - cargo2rpm (RPM macro backend / low-level Python module): https://pagure.io/fedora-rust/cargo2rpm - rust-packaging (RPM macros and generators): https://pagure.io/fedora-rust/rust-packaging - rust2rpm (RPM spec file generator): https://pagure.io/fedora-rust/rust2rpm Fabio _______________________________________________ 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 Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
