If so - then there needs to be an obsoletes There are very few packages depending directly on font packages, and converting to font guidelines does not necessarily produce compatible packages. It replaces a lot of manual steps with automation, making new file location naming predictible. However they do not necessarily match whatever the packager did manually before (and actually most often they don't). So it's better not to pretend we provide the old package, to make deps on the old package break, and have packagers actually check the paths they use are all right. The main reason to add a dep on a font package is because an app does not use fontconfig and relies on exact file placement (which is argually a bug in the app since we've been converting to fontconfig for ~ 7 years now, but that's another problem) 2. What is the conflicts allowing? There is not trace of it in bugzilla, because you gave advice over IRC, but IIRC they were added to the update pattern in the course of solving bug #474514. If you think it's not needed we'll be happy not to have to bother with it. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Fedora-fonts-bugs-list mailing list Fedora-fonts-bugs-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-fonts-bugs-list

If so, then it needs to have an obsolete This entry has derived massively from the original subject. The original report was: Fedora upgrade path is broken because a Fedora package has been split, and a third-party package depended on it = NOTOURBUG, we've fixed our packages, and have no control of what third-parties do. If our upgrade path was broken for a package as massively deployed as liberation bugzilla would overflow with problem reports. Third-party packages should not expect Fedora font package names to live forever, and a release change is the right moment to break compat on this front Then someone noticed the spec declared some explicit conflicts. As far as I know they were added to help yum during groupinstalls (in the course of resolving bug #474514).

Then someone noticed the spec declared some explicit conflicts.
Well, I was mostly annoyed about the subpackages Obsoleting and Providing
themselves:
%package -n %{fontname}-sans-fonts
Summary: Sans-serif fonts to replace commonly used Microsoft Arial
Group:User Interface/X
Requires: %{fontname}-fonts-common = %{version}-%{release}
-Conflicts:liberation-fonts 1.04.93-8
-Obsoletes:liberation-sans-fonts 1.04.93-8
-Provides: liberation-sans-fonts = %{version}-%{release}
but if the conflicts are needed it would be good to know why
and I can bring them back.

2. as far as I understand, you're relying on undocumented yum behaviour the

developpers never committed to
1. What are you saying? I consider a support package that is not removed when
the main package is removed a packaging mishap. %{fontname}-common should not
exist in the system if there is no %{fontname}-fonts package installed.
2. What undocumented yum behaviour might you be referring to? The thing that
a package automatically provides itself with its own version, and yum updates
packages with newer versions?

This is not a realistic expectation. Large parts of the distro violate this
rule today and have for a long as Fedora and RHL existed.
2. What undocumented yum behaviour might you be referring to? The thing that

You make different packages, that can be installed simultaneously, have the
same provides. This has always been a case the dependency engines didn't handle
very well. And you don't even have a strong reason to do so, your fix is at
best cosmetic.

Okay; I've just seen the same sort of thing with other packages, e.g. xfig
comes first to my mind.
You can do the dropping of the unnecessary Provides: and Obsoletes, though
(even if it is just a cosmetic change).

ever

liberation-fonts-1.04.93-3.fc11 is the only build I see with
liberation-fonts-sans.

No. upgrading path from F-10 - F-11 MUST be preserved.
This is not related to font packaging policy.
The upgrade path DOES work within Fedora. (see comment #7)
That third party packages fail is none of our problem. And a metapackage is
certainly not needed. In fact a large part of the liberation spec ugly-ness is
due to mixing in metapackage patterns. However even though this mixing makes it
difficult to understand it should still work ok.
Anyway,

However F11 itself should not include such a package, and the upgrade path works for pure Fedora packages, so it s NOTABUG I don't think that's a valid point: if you have a F10 system with some package requiring liberation-fonts, it will not be removed if the package that required it no longer requires it. However, if the new F11 package requires the new liberation-fonts-subpackage, you will end up with a file clash, which is not what is supposed to happen. Forcing other maintainers is not a good thing if it means that upgrades don't work automatically. At least for people wanting to yum upgrade this is a pain in the ass. Now that F11 is going gold soon, I think you SHOULD put in the obsoletes, since every package that has already been built in F11 has taken the renamal into account- -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Fedora-fonts-bugs-list mailing list Fedora-fonts-bugs-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-fonts-bugs-list
