Please understand that the new grub2 package just adds some optional features. Noone forces you to do so, so if you disagree with the presence of a package, the nice thing about it is that you do not have to install it. In case you feel grubby support is important at this point, you, or anyone, can add it whenever you want to provided your patch is accepted by the grubby maintainer, but please do not use it as argument, unless it is a packaging-comitee approved guideline. I find it highly odd to add support for a nonexistent package, and am not going to do so. In case you question the quality of the review, please point out where does it violate the guidelines. I value comments with valuable opinions, but unsupported assertion presented as "consensus" is of hardly any use. So, to summarize: 1.) grub2 is usable without grubby support - see distribution-agnostic grub2-update 2.) There actually are userspace tools to support grub2 - see grub2-update and $EDITOR 3.) grub2 package does not interfere with anything already in base - none of its provides overlays any existing package, including grub - it does not replace grub2 4.) grub2 was properly reviewed and approved Kevin: given the above explanation, please process the CVS request (unless a package guidelines violation is found, which I believe to be unlikely after a relatively long this request is open) -- 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. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
