In fact it might lead to unexpected and undesired behavior. I don't think these new tags should be allowed as part of FC or FE policy until its clear that the new tags behave as expected when the default in-core tools have to deal with them. And any understanding as to potentially problems is going to require some local system testing from people who are interested in using these tags in their packaging. I wouldn't hold your breath waiting for these new features to be acceptible packaging policy. I fully expect there is going to have to be work done to support these new tags by tools other than rpm cli. Until we know where we stand with the tools that intereact with librpm, i say no dice. -jef -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
