The best idea we've come up with yet is to have bodhi /not/ untag a build from dist-f??-updates-testing when it moves to stable, and instead have the mash process that composes dist-f?? do the untagging, or use something outside of either of those to periodically check packages in dist-f14-updates-testing and dist-f14 and clean things out of dist-f14-updates-testing that are on the public repo. - -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature! identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkx1j/IACgkQ4v2HLvE71NURSwCgtix90fMWn4qQm9WyfnhDq4VC qdIAn1hLIxHIWxGJGe7WNQSpkjUya7Hf =yt5n -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
