--- Comment #12 from Susi Lehtola <[email protected]> --- Upstream has a weird attitude about only building from their release tarballs due to bad experiences (i) a long time ago (ii) without standard build infrastucture. If you look at the log, the build silently uses developer mode since it detects .devel. Since there are no nightly release builds, it's impossible to build the state-of-the-art software without doing this. The latest stable release has several bugs and defects that prevent its use in packages, e.g. the lack of a proper python build. As to the versioning guidelines, it appears those have changed over the years; when I started doing Fedora packaging almost 20 years ago the releases were marked in the release tag. Like I said, the package is not going to be imported until the 3.0.0 release is minted upstream, and according to Fedora policy, it is perfectly alright to reset the changelog and version history upon inclusion in Fedora. Thank you for pointing out the missing metadata and explaining why it matters; I will look into patching this upstream. PS. there's a world of difference between pregeneration that takes days (libxc) and pregeneration that takes fractions of a millisecond (trexio). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
