Summary: Review Request: xtide - Calculate tide all over the world https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=211626 ------- Additional Comments From bugs.michael@xxxxxxx 2006-10-30 07:41 EST ------- What these packages need is more time to mature. The more disagreement during review, the more time it takes for things to settle down. The rushed submission and release of wvs-data has shown that the plan is to release all this for FC-5, FC-6 and not just development. To put it bluntly, the many comments to this ticket and the history of the spec demonstrate that these packages are still subject to major changes from one day to the other and that they have a fuzzy target only. This is enough reason to believe that the heavy changes might continue after approval. Since the original submission, not just the soname has changed thrice. >From an initial libtcd.so.21{.0.3} to libtcd.so.0{.0.0}, and now once more. And interestingly, due to an upstream change. Hear, hear! This is the proof that an uncoordinated library versioning scheme like this is much too fragile. It would be irresponsible to approve these packages. The veto situation is unclear. Hence the only way to block this from entering FE is to not approve all this for now.
