Hi everyone, As I understand it, Fedora 45 will comfortably use F44 packages as long as they work. Consequently, our next major mass-rebuild likely won't occur until F46 or F47, which is precisely when a significant number of packages are expected to FTBFS due to incoming CMake 4 changes.
To help mitigate this, Cristian Le has already done some incredible work and opened an extensive list of PRs addressing CMake 4 fixes. Unfortunately, many of these pull requests are now 4 to 12 months old and are still awaiting a response or review from the respective maintainers. Do we really need to wait for the next official mass-rebuild to see movement on these, or let them drift into the two-release "retire by FTBFS" pipeline? Given that the fixes are already sitting in Pagure, could this be a good candidate for a coordinated Proven Packager effort to review and land these outstanding PRs early? I would love to hear thoughts on how we can proactively address this backlog before it becomes a major bottleneck for the distribution. -- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] 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/[email protected] Do not reply to spam, report it: https://forge.fedoraproject.org/infra/tickets/issues/new
