All packages would need to be rebuilt before a dist release. Alternatively, it would enter the repo metadata somehow, so tools would apply a "dist version" check at the repo level and trigger downgrades of packages based on what dist the repo is made for. Tools could also recognize whether a package is for Fedora 21. But yes, another hidden value that affects RPM version comparison would be really ugly. -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
