This is free already, as that data is always part of the solver cache. Besides, there is no ban on paths that are provided by primary.xml (*/bin, */sbin, */lib(64|exec), /etc). The ban is basically pointless, but that's what it is. > IIRC Fedora already had policy to not use paths in BRs. > Outside of paths already provided in primary.xml, packagers SHOULD NOT, yes. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
