Hi,
some questions about Critpath, I was not able to find, looking at [1]
<
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Critical_path_package> and [2]
<
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Critical_Path_Packages_Proposal>.
TL;DR: why is MariaDB Critpath in F26 and Rawhide.
*1) *How can I list critpath packages?
I mean, this doesn't really show, what I expect:
# dnf groupinfo critical-path-base critical-path-apps critical-path-kde
critical-path-lxde critical-path-xfce critical-path-gnome core
--enablerepo-rawhide
*2)* How do I find out, which part of package is meant to be critpath?
I mean, who the hell would use MariaDB client for critpath purposes?
However, the mariadb-libs subpackage sound's like the one that was chosen.
*3) *Where can I find list of critpath packages online?
Because [1] looks like it want to point at such a document in its last
section "Where can I find the critical path?", but it does point to page
totally unrelated to critpath, without even any mention of that word.
*4)* Who decides, which packages will be added to critpath and why?
I got only one message. "ausil set the critical path flag on the mariadb
package (master)"
Like ... I won't tell you anything (for example WHY and WHAT PART of
mariadb), just deal with it?
