I am unaware of any remaining use cases for buildroot overrides that

Every time somebody asks this, I say: Pull Requests CI

I opened https://pagure.io/fedora-ci/general/issue/240 almost 3 years ago.

It works in CentOS Stream, but not in Fedora.

Without that, I sometimes need to create a buildroot override to be able to
test the the second package change before merging it.


This sounds a lot more like a workaround than a use-case, but it's
good to know about. So thank you.

Yes, it is.

Unfortunately, I feel like that workaround is dangerous, since it is
putting untested code into the buildroot.

In this case the PR-based CI has already passed for the build I add as a buidlroot override.

I would like to see that get
fixed properly with support for the side tags.

I would like that very much. However, it seems it has not been a priority.

In the meantime, if we
otherwise disabled free-access buildroot overrides, this would
definitely be grounds for granting an exception.

How would that work? Would I ask FESCo every time I need to do it?
