I am the maintainer of rubygem-liquid package in Fedora. Every now and then is receive notification that this package has been built and updated for eln, for example [1,2].
I have been trying to understand why this package is included in eln. As far as I can understand, it should be somehow visible in Content Resolver [3]. I have not found a "search by package name" feature there, so I have also grepped the content-resolver-input repository [4]. I cannot find anything there, either.
Could somebody explain how this package ends up being included in eln?
The reason why I care is that I have deferred the Liquid 5 update in Fedora on the basis that its only consumer, Jekyll, is still on 4. These eln builds make me suspect that rubygem-liquid is used for something else there. I would like to check with the correct people that my decision to stay on 4 is ok for them, too.

It is a build dependency of rubygem-sinatra and rubygem-tilt [5] Currently, the only way to find that was to go into the buildroot section of ELN Views -> eln -> x86_64 -> buildroot
This problem of the build dependencies being sort of hidden is being worked on. We are hoping to have the next major release of Content Resolver out in a month or two. It will make it much easier to see why a package is in the list.
