Hi, As agreed at osc11 I am working to add version numbers to the library whitelist such that we can gradually eliminate the list and enforce the library policy on all appropriate packages. While processing the list I have found a number of packages listed that no longer exist, such as libEMF1 or libglibsharpglue-2. IMHO we should just remove these from the list. There should be no harm, unless there are false positives, i.e. packages I was not able to find but they exist. One such example may be libXrender. libXrender is listed in the whitelist as libXrender1 and it cannot be found using "osc bse". However, using the web search interface one can find xorg-x11-libXrender. This leads me to my next question. How is the whitelist used? Exact matches or loose matches, i.e. the libXrender1 listing matches xorg-x11-libXrender and thus exempts it from the policy or, libXrender1 does not match xorg-x11-libXrender and therefore there is no exemption. Next are the entries in the list that list packages in home: projects. IMHO these should also be removed from the list. Of course we can discuss whether or not packaging policies should be enforced in home projects, but I'd rather not go down that rat hole. Finally some statistics: Current total entries in the whitelist: 119 Packages only in home: projects: 14 Packages not found: 63 Thus the list would only have 42 entries if we decide to remove everything that cannot be found based on the listed name and things that are in home: projects. Thought/Comments?
