Dear all,
* Finally, the form used in bugzilla to do SCM requests has been updated and
now asks for the `Upstream URL`
Why? What is this supposed to be useful for?
AFAIS,
- this pkgdb-URL is redundant to the contents of the RPM
=> This pkgdb URL will gradually diverge and become inconsistent to the
RPMs' contents.
- this pkgdb-URL will require SCM-requests, whenever an upstream-URL
changes == more and additional bureaucracy.
- how to handle this Upstream-URL for packages without upstream URL?
Inside of RPMS, The URL:-tag is optional, i.e. there has never been a
strict requirement to have an upstream URL.
