I have recently been granted maintainership of the libcec package, and plan to clean up
the open bugs assigned to it.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1466166
This is an old bug from 2017 requesting the existing libcec 3.1 package be replaced with
libcec 4.0.7.
libcec 4.0.7 mock builds just fine on epel7.
I’ve read the EPEL documentation regarding incompatible upgrades, and I am not entirely
sure this falls under that category. Yes, it is a major version upgrade, but it is unclear
to me if that makes it “incompatible”.
General advice on how best to respond to the open bug is being requested. Thank you.
