https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1450590 sid@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |sid@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx --- Comment #9 from sid@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx --- Hi folks -- I'm a Fedora package maintainer (albeit for a small package), and also one of the original authors of Watchman. I'm very interested in getting Watchman into Fedora -- we believe it's the most robust directory watching tool in existence. I understand and respect the motivations behind wanting to unbundle libraries, but as Wez pointed out in https://github.com/facebook/watchman/issues/474#issuecomment-303563584 that wouldn't be appropriate here. We've forked these libraries and made invasive changes to them -- they're effectively internal components at this point. It is not really possible to extricate our changes, unfortunately. Consider a slightly different situation where we wrote a JSON library, wildmatch, libart etc from scratch for Watchman. I'm sure unbundling wouldn't be a problem in that case. Would it be possible to treat our current situation as this slightly different but still legitimate one? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
