That really shouldn't be happening for anything which wasn't officially
made mandatory or forbidden or whatnot.  Sure, I went through and
removed Group: tags long ago, and the same was done for ldconfig
scriptlets and such, but that was only after the whole thing had gone
through the change process.  I can't imagine it would be appropriate for
a provenpackager (who isn't also explicitly listed as a maintainer for a
specific package) to just make a fundamental change to package
maintenance like that with no discussion.  I would think that if it did
happen, it would definitely warrant an apology.

But, fixing bugs and FTBFS issues?  That's absolutely part of what we
would expect provenpackagers to be doing.
