Why it is not acceptable to keep it like that?
Some consider the source code to be the file that a edited by a human only. A patch against the generated code would make no sense.
OK. But normally no patch is needed.
But anyway, I think we'll keep it simple and do the following:
- For Fedora 14, rebuild normally an regenerate the C code.
- For Fedora > 14, use the generated C code
As soon as latexila supports Vala >= 0.11, I will update these packages for Fedora > 14 to always regenerate C code. The Fedora 14 version will use the generated C code.
For latexila 2.0.x I'll continue to use Vala 0.10.
But for latexila 2.2.x, I'll use Vala >= 0.11, GTK+ 3.0 and so on, so at that time it will not be possible to make a package for Fedora 14.
Finally, F-14 with become EOL and we will be back to a stable situation.
It's a solution, but I don't think the situation will become stable, the Vala API can change between each major version.
