[opensuse-gnome] Version freeze in factory?
Hi, I must admit I'm confused. I think we're upstream-version-frozen in factory since Beta 1 [1]. But I also think we have some exception for GNOME, so we can at least update to 2.24.1. Now, it's not clear to me what's covered by the exception. Is this only the official GNOME modules (as in "upstream official"), or is it also the case for the GNOME dependencies? Or is it the complete GNOME:Factory stuff? Eg, I've asked for a freeze break for system-config-printer, and it got approved today.

The 2.24.1 exception covers official GNOME modules and includes the deps, though we should be prudent with the deps as described below.

Yes, on a case-by-case basis you can request breaks, esp. where the update follows the openSUSE freeze guidelines - ie if the update didn't add new features, strings, ui, etc. -JP -- JP Rosevear <jpr@novell.com> Novell, Inc. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org
