That information should be retrived from a different source, just like upstream changelogs. either from the SCM history, rpm metadata or something automated and yet to be developed, where the OBS knows a new patch has been added and stores such information for everybody to see, without bothering packages with meaningless tasks.
I know you know better than that Christian.. BUT: OBS is not really a VCS... you know, I know.. everybody knows.. let's stop claiming the opposite.
It is so absurd that complyng with this rules takes more time than actually fixing a problem.
Packaging is a task of it's own... and, considering that I can update an entire gnome stack in < 2 days (which is ~ 200 packages!) I don't think those 'rules' are that difficult to honor... in fact, they just ask you to write down what you do... I know, documentation is NOT exactly what devs like.. but without it, we're just lost.
