Comments? I would not recommend this: - banshee-community-extensions's configure script will (during compile time) ensure, that at least a supported banshee version is availabe - as long as we don't downgrade banshee this will ensure, that this condition is also met for the binary packages - pinpointing to an exact version will IMHO generate unnecessary rebuilds - I assume that lots of people will have installed the extensions anyway and so it is very likely that the problems are caught either during packaging or during the testing period So all in all I suggest not to require a specific banshee version. > - Maybe we should create sub-packages and not put all extensions in one > package? I'm not sure about this: There are two reasons which come to my mind why this could be helpful: 1. the full package is unreasonable big or 2. the full package pulls in lots of dependencies which are only needed for some extensions But since the package itself is only about 1 MByte I don't think it is necessary because of the size. Regarding the dependencies "rpm -qR banshee-community-extensions" does not reveal anything critical. Most dependent packages are already installed because of other nearly-always-installed packages require them anyway (e.g. the deps of mirage are pulled in by pulseaudio and kdemultimedia). So far I don't see a strong need for splitting up the package into sub-packages. But I don't have a very strong opinion on this... ;-) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ package-review mailing list package-review@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/package-review
