I don't think the Change process should be expected to find consensus, your incentive is only to find something which passes a FeSCO vote. But yeah, doing something like that would definitely get my +1: #ifndef I_ACKNOWLEDGE_THAT_ENGINES_WILL_BE_GONE_IN_FEDORA_41 #define OPENSSL_NO_ENGINE #endif ...and moving engine.h back the main -devel package. -- _______________________________________________ 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, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
