I agree that it's a silly MUST but the right the to do is to change the rule rather than ignore it. I would suggest the following: Instead of: - MUST: A package must not contain any BuildRequires that are listed in the exceptions section of Packaging Guidelines. - MUST: All other Build dependencies must be listed in BuildRequires. I'd have: - MUST: All build dependencies must be listed in BuildRequires, except for any that are listed in the exceptions section of Packaging Guidelines; inclusion of those as BuildRequires is optional. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
