hamcrest2 package is orphaned and it will be retired soon, unless someone adopts it. As maintainer of hamcrest I would like to keep it at the latest upstream version. Older versions can of course be packaged as compat packages with version suffix in the name, if anyone wishes to maintain them. > We packaged them separately because, IIRC, maven artifact coordinates > and java package import paths are completely separate between version > 1.x and 2.x so packages can't just be updated, but actually need to be > ported to the new 2.x APIs. That is the API break I was speaking of. Hence I gave maintainers of dependent packages a week to respond and prepare their packages to work with updated hamcrest, by porting to hamcrest 2.2 or by packaging version 1.x as hamcrest1 compat package and switching packages to use it instead of hamcrest. -- Mikolaj Izdebski > > Fabio > _______________________________________________ > devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org > To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org > Fedora Code of Conduct: > https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ > List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines > List Archives: > https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org > Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: > https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
