Purpose of non-user visible groups in comps?
by Richard Shaw
I'm looking at updating the groups in comps for MinGW and there is already
a mingw32 group but it's not user visible.
My plan would be to update it so there is a user visible group, something
to the effect of "MinGW Development" that would install a basic mingw
development environment for both 32 and 64 bit windows applications.
Is there any special handling that needs to be done of the old group? Or
should I leave it alone and just create the new group?
Thanks,
Richard

F29 System Wide Change: Perl 5.28
by Jan Kurik
= Proposed System Wide Change: Perl 5.28 =
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/perl5.28
Owner(s):
* Jitka Plesníková <jplesnik at redhat dot com>
* Petr Písař <ppisar at redhat dot com>
A new ''perl 5.28'' version brings a lot of changes done over a year
of development. Perl 5.28 will be released 5/28/2018. See
http://search.cpan.org/dist/perl-5.28.0-RC1/pod/perldelta.pod 5.28.0
perldelta for more details about preparing release.
== Detailed description ==
New perl is released every year and updates containing mainly bug
fixes follow during the year. The 5.28.0 version is stable release
this year.
== Scope ==
Every Perl package will be rebuilt in a dedicated ''f29-perl''
build-root against perl 5.28.0 and then if no major problem emerges
the packages will be merged back to ''f29'' build-root.
* Proposal owners:
New perl and all packages requiring perl or a Perl module will be
rebuilt into f29-perl build-root.
* Other developers:
N/A (not a System Wide Change)Owners of packages that fail to rebuild,
mainly perl-sig users, will be asked using Bugzilla to fix or remove
their packages from the distribution.
* Release engineering:
https://pagure.io/releng/issue/7509 #7509
Release engineers will be asked for new f29-perl build-root inheriting
from f29 build-root. After successful finishing the rebuild, they will
be asked to merge f29-perl packages back to f29 build-root.
* Policies and guidelines:
No policies have to be modified to complete this change.
