I wanted to generate the changes of project which links to another.
But iterate through the history with osc -r fails; it generates only the diff. -e doesn't work in combination with -r.
It seems the link is not generated against a specific version of the source project, and so that information is not archived, and osc doesn't know which version of the source project to retrieve.
A link with no specific revision always links against the most recent version. This is usually what the user wants.
That strikes me as rather bad, because it means bi-secting for _link projects essentially doesn't work at all right now.
Would it not be acceptable if osc -r -e expanded the link against the version of the source project which was current at that time? (After all, that's what it would have build against.)
Current at what time? It builds against the latest revision, so I don't understand what you're proposing. Note that the generated rpms contain the "expanded" md5sum in the DISTURL tag, this is an unique identifier to retrieve the sources used for building.
