> Upstream's specs are completely irrelevant for FE. The only thing that I think that being able to be in sync with apstream spec is nice, although I agree that it shouldn't lead to bad practices. I don't try to sync with upstream in that case, but I think that extending the release isn't such a case. > matters is consistency within Fedora.

Extending release tags instead of bumping doesn't add complexity. If I remember well, I also do that for other packages, when I want to keep the branches in sync as much as possible and avoid changelog entries when a build didn't complete due to a trivial error on a branch but not on others, and I have to change the release to rebuild. > IMNSHO, FE's conventions on release tags should be tighted and > explicitly disallow this kind of usage. I don't think so. It should be up to the packager. -- Pat -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
