What's the benefit of vendoring over a build system that supports
offline builds against un-vendored dependencies?
I expect Konflux <https://konflux-ci.dev/> to have this capability
(although the documentation is a bit buzzword-heavy, so it's hard to
tell whether it's actually included). There's a Fedora SIG for it:
<https://github.com/konflux-ci/community/blob/main/sigs/fedora.md>
My guess is time. This is a proposal which could be implemented in a release cycle and is fairly 'known' in what problems it would bring in. It is not clear when konflux would be available in Fedora, how it would be incorporated into the build system or a ton of other things which makes the time to get it implemented into Fedora an 'unknown'.
Going from how long smaller components to the Fedora build system took in maintenance, production and planning (pdc, various container building systems which came and went, modularity, packagedb, etc) a large system like Konflux would likely take multiple releases both to get into the Fedora 'build flow' and into the developer workflows.
Thanks,
Florian
