Hi, I have two packages that I maintain that both use the same upstream tarball. I'm not sure about the history behind why this was setup this way, but I assume it was so that one could be updated without having to update the other. This happens so rarely that I don't think it is really worth the effort of maintaining two separate packages (and dealing with buildroot overrides, submitting synchronized updates, etc.) Thus, I am thinking about merging them. Is this really just as simple as having spec A build spec B's packages and then retire source package B? Thanks, Scott
Yes. But if perhaps you mentioned what packages these are, someone might remember why this was done this way and might comment on the specifics.
