Just trying to wrap my head around this :) - task2 obsoletes task <= 2.whatever, in F38--40. So, when users update, they get task2. Cool, that sounds good. - task >= 3 then lands in rawhide (F41), and users will have to install it explicitly. That does solve the issue of taskv2 being upgraded to taskv3 without the users' knowledge. Users still have to manually export/import, but I don't see a way around that at all. Additionally, for those on stable releases that do want to update to taskv3, I can maybe provide a COPR for F<41. I think I'll still announce it as a self contained change for more visibility. Thanks for that, I think that is the best way to go. -- Thanks, Regards, Ankur Sinha "FranciscoD" (He / Him / His) | https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ankursinha Time zone: Europe/London
