FWIW and being consistent with other recent changes the best move would have been for fftw to have become fftw2 as soon as version 3 was declare stable. All the development for this library is happening in version 3, where release 3.1 is entering beta phase. So let us request the change, for you it should be enough to Obsolete fftw3, no? Then we need to change accordingly the packages that require fftw to require fftw2 and those requiring fftw3 to fftw. Since packages should only build require the -devel version if we synchronize our releases all will still work. Does this sounds like a plan? > -Quentin -- José Abílio -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
