If somebody wants to pick up the packages, I would recommend to file a request for an Updates Policy exception, so that the packages can be updated to the latest stable version in stable Fedora branches , even if it technically contains breaking changes. I think this would make sense for this kind of project where upstream moves fast and pushes breaking changes frequently - and I assume people who use hyprland would know that they need to adapt their configuration frequently.
