Because you plan to start the rebuild on the 12th. Yes, of course, sorry for the that and the resulting confusion. > Also, there are many noarch packages which don't benefit from a rebuild > at all, so I think the above removal plan should be limited to > non-noarch packages. They IMHO should be rebuild because - this way we notice that packagers are still alive and active (maybe some packages are orphaned and we simply don't know about it yet). - some noarch packages might not build anymore because foo or bar changed in between (modular X.org for example). Yeah, maybe that's unlikely, but we all know computers and linux well enough and know that things like that happen.
