I mean, I don't have any preference here, but what's the harm if it's in a
subpackage and built by default? In my opinion, we can remove it once
upstream at least starts not to build it by default?
End-users will have to swap to
the full intel-media-driver by hands. Having
this package might interfere with this process.
I don't get what you mean by "once it's upstream" ? There is no plan to
get
this library into a separate project. This is backward. cmrt is now part of
intel-media-driver and not meant as separate library.

Yeah, I always forget that tags are just for development versions here, will
keep that in mind once it's imported and follow stable releases unless we
need to use devel for some reason.
Thanks
On the other hand, I don't see a big harm in importing it to f39
too? The
API/ABI should be "libva/VAAPI" no? And if there arrives something that
depends on the distributed .so (can/should that happen?), we can handle that
in a side-tag?
What I mean by 23.4 is pre-release is that any later 23.4 serie can
mandates
any higher libva library (or else) than what currently has f39.
Also Intel VAAPI is know to silent break ABI from time to time, so even minor
releases need to be carefully audited. At the end, we don't want to rebuild all
libva userspace deps for a single driver update
(even if we could do this in fedora/rpmfusion it will nevertheless break many
legitimate copr users that might have different maintenance pace).
I hope to have clarified the point.
