Hi all,
2 days ago I got 4 bugs requesting me to add Requires: yelp to packages using
it for their help system.
So I issued 3 rawhide updates (one bug was a false positive).
However yesterday I received a comment in all 4 bugs to please not Require yelp
?????
See for example:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=243330
Well Hurray! Thats just brilliant communication (not). So which way will it be
tomorrow?
Hence I'm bringing this issue here for debating, as I don't want to have to
keep following the trend of the day in this. Can we please make up our mind on
this people?
My 2 cents: I actually didn't have yelp installed and without it the help menu
entry of the 3 updates apps didn't do anything, it didn't even throw an error.
So I do believe that Requiring yelp is the right thing, as clicking on help
without anything happying is a bug in my view.
If OLPC or some other downstream really doesn't want yelp, they should have
some other package providing it, call it fake-yelp for all I care. Not
Requiring: yelp is not the answer IMHO.
Regards,
Hans
