Hello,
Currently, when doing package updates, we have some (strange) policy that we have to put in what changes upstream made (ie, bugfixes, new features etc).
All this information is already available in the NEWS/ChangeLog file for most packages.
Since this doesn't seem to be an openSUSE policy [1] I wonder why we enforce this for GNOME components?
AFAIR, this is an autobuild team policy. Can't say now for sure, but I think I've had submissions rejected in the past because of not including the upstream's NEWS, so I got used to add them always. for very long NEWS entries, you can just add a link to the NEWS file itself ($package-$version.news in ftp.gnome.org) -- Rodrigo Moya <rodrigo@novell.com> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org
