This clearly constitutes a bundling, and this request is really about unbundling the faces library from OpenERP. See http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:No_Bundled_Libraries. Basically, I need to either package faces or get a bundling exception. In this case, I'm certain that a request for bundling exception would give a "package separately" reply. The patch is basically between what's in OE today and (partly) works, and the upstream which is unusable. (In reply to comment #12) > Patching faces/__init__.py actually changes the API of the module, so I > considers it too heavy. Shall we ask the list about this? Seems that we just disagree ?! As far as I know, there is no rule blocking this kind of patching. OTOH, not everything is covered in rules, it's also about overall judgment. Which can be harder to agree on, though. -- 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
