[HEADS UP] Upcoming soname change for libtirpc
by Steve Dickson
Hello,
Well place sources tell me in the upcoming
libtirpc release the soname will be changing
due to some API changes.
The API changes will make the Linux version
more compatible with litbirpc implementations
Obviously this change will just go in rawhide
but how do I
1) request the build rpm go be added to the build root?
2) find and rebuild all the dependencies?
3) anything else I need to do?
tia,
steved.

System V to systemd unit migration
by Stephen Gallagher
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
At the FESCo meeting on October 14th, it was decided that the time
has come to finally complete the migration away from System V init
scripts. What does this mean for you as a packager?
When we branch from Rawhide for Fedora 24 (currently scheduled for
February 2nd, 2016), we will be immediately retiring any package in
the Fedora collection that relies on a System V init script instead of
a systemd unit file to start. We will consider reasonable requests to
delay this action on a case-by-case basis for anyone who submits a
ticket to FESCo no later than 23:59 UTC on January 12, 2016.
There is no plan to remove System V compatibility from Fedora, due to
the necessity of supporting legacy third-party software. We are also
not making any changes at all to the EPEL project. EPEL packages may
continue to use System V init scripts (in the case of EPEL 5 and EPEL
6, there is no other option).
We will be going through the Wiki packaging documentation over the
next month and updating all related entries to reflect this change in
policy.
This will be the first such announcement. The Change Wrangler will be
sending additional reminders from now until February 2nd, so no one
will be surprised by this event.

Hi,
I'll upgrade libicu to 56.1 in rawhide, which as usual comes with
a soname bump. I requested a side tag for the builds, David Tardon will
help with rebuilding the dependent packages.
