Hi, I've just realized that %dist is defined to:

%{?distprefix}.fc30%{?with_bootstrap:~bootstrap}

That effectively means that using %bcond_without bootstrap, the dist is changed
to .fc31~bootstrap.

Is this something that we actually want? E.g. I was quite surprised by the behavior.

Reading https://pagure.io/packaging-committee/issue/818
gives me an impression that the packaging committee didn't really approve nor
forbid this, so I'm looking for recommendation.

When I bootstrap, should I manually bump the release number or let this magic
happen?

Let the magic happen. Embrace it, and it will help you. 😁


Also, how do I opt-out from this behavior (other than renaming my conditional)?


I don't think you can unless you rename your conditional. This part
was kinda added for Go things by Nicolas Mailhot. 🤷‍♂️

I plead not guilty, I'm responsible for the distprefix addition (for the forge macros, not just Go packages), not the bootstrap one :)

Many kuddos to the people who wrote the bootstrap part, more automation is always good.

Now, if I *had* written the bootstrap part, I would have packed it inside a distpostfix, to keep dist construction under packager contol.
