This is an approved by FESCo Fedora 29 change that needs to be done before the mass rebuild, which is scheduled for the 11th (2 days from now). 2018-07-11 Mass Rebuild ( see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/29/Schedule ) So, really the discussion time for this would have been best in March when the change was discussed on list). I don't see any chance at all that some other compiler will be default in Fedora anytime soon. Fedora has a close and productive relationship with gcc which I hope will continue. In the event years down the road something changes, we can always just change the BuildRequires: gcc to whatever we are switching to, or have that provide gcc or any other number of things. kevin
