We do have them. How does that relate to modularity at all?
That was a representative example. I came up with it at 11pm after a
long day. Don't read too much into the specifics. The point was that
builds may require newer or older software than we have available in
the non-modular buildroot, but don't require them at runtime.
Similarly, the example of "build on Rawhide, run anywhere" was
backwards. I should have said "build on oldest supported Fedora, carry
through".
