RANT: compton-ng…
by Igor Gnatenko
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1738293
How did it pass review?
> Obsoletes: compton
Silently doing Obsoletes of an active package and doing so even
without version which is prohibited by the Packaging Guidelines.
Really?
> cp -a yshui-%{appname}-%{test_shortcommit}/subprojects/test.h /builddir/build/BUILD/%{appname}-%{version}/subprojects/
I am not sure if it is written anywhere, but hardcoding
/builddir/whatsoever is so bad…
> %meson --buildtype=release
There is specific reason why we have --buildtype=plain in %meson
macro, because with release buildtype, debuginfo is unusable…
> # Enable LTO
> %global optflags %{optflags} -flto=$(nproc)
> %global build_ldflags %{build_ldflags} -flto
Have anybody ever talked to the RPM folks about proper way of enabling
LTO for builds? This specific way of setting it makes build
non-reproducible.

Gating branched?
by Miro Hrončok
Now that we are branching Fedora 31,
I wonder what are the plans for F31 gating before the "Bodhi activation point".
Will we only gate rawhide and let f31 builds go directly to the f31-pending ->
f31 tag?
Or the procedure on rawhide and branched will be +- identical?
(I've been told on IRC that "currently" there is no gating for branched, but I'd
like to know the plan beyond "currently" as well.)

Fedora 32: Deprecating WEXT
by Lubomir Rintel
Hi,
We're considering removing support for Wireless Extensions from
NetworkManager in Fedora 32 time frame.
A more modern Wi-Fi configuration API, cfg802111/nl80211, has been
available since 2007 and maybe there's no point in carrying the
maintenance burden anymore. It seems reasonable to assume that all
relevant and actively maintained wireless drivers have been ported.
If anyone sees good a reason not to carry out the removal, please speak
up.
Thank you
Lubo

repoquery: Modular dependency problems: nothing provides
module(platform:f30)
by Miro Hrončok
I've noticed that recently, I see this with repoquery regardless of the query:
$ repoquery --repo=rawhide ...
Modular dependency problems:
Problem 1: conflicting requests
- nothing provides module(platform:f30) needed by module
