Was fesco aware that we're talking about a download size of less than
2% [1] and that the disttag confusion is the least of the upcoming
potential problems [2]? Was it clear that this is the first time ever
Fedora rebuilds less than 95% of its packages (FC did 95-100%
rebuilds, FE > 99%, now it's 80% and 62% respectively) [3]? These
"details" are rather important.
Yes. A mass rebuild was voted down.
