I would have been in favour of a different approach in that case: - announce clearly the new policy for license tags (I only read some references but nothing dedicated) - rpmlint checks (even fatal would be fine for Factory) - let maintainers fix it - before 12.2 release do a bulk change for packages not already fixed
The fatal rpmlint check would have hit 99.9% of all packages and why let maintainers fix something a script can fix in half an hour?
Why the script doesn't add a changelog entry at least?
Because this would have created way more conflicts than a one line change.
OP's point was that he would like to see a conflict to not accidentally revert something without even noting it.
And the license syntax change is hardly interesting for the user.
Isn't the changlog made for packagers as well? I've got several trivial submit requests declined because of missing changelog. Your argument could be used to satisfy never changelogging any build fixes. cu, Rudi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
