Hi,

I noticed that the google-noto-serif-cjk-fonts package on openSUSE:Factory is a link from openSUSE:Factory/google-noto-sans-cjk-fonts, but it still contains the old contents instead of the linked target. That made Tumbleweed keeping the old packages (that had a higher package number "2017xxx" than the current "2.00x").

How can I fix this mess? When I do osc branch, it'll branch off from the develproject M17N:fonts/google-noto-sans-cjk-fonts from the target link, which is of course nonsense for cleaning up the openSUSE:Factory repo.

Ideally speaking, I'd like to separate again those packages into individual repos instead of link, as they have no direct relations at all. But, when I tried to remove google-noto-serif-cjk-fonts.{spec,changes} from *-sans-* repo in the local branch, it resulted in a bad state, so I gave up. If anyone gives a hint how to go further, it'd be appreciated.

With the help of Coolo, now the fixes have been submitted to openSUSE:Factory (SR#990774 and SR#990775). Let's see whether this works. thanks, Takashi
