``
Do you intend to make the changes default prior to the mass rebuild
for Fedora 27 so packages all have it enabled?
No. At first it will be optional for packagers to opt in by defining the two macros in
their spec file.
Only after we get feedback from packagers and are sure that the releng tools handle
-debugsource packages correctly can we consider flipping those on by default.
Also there are a couple of packages (notably the kernel, glibc and gcc) that already have
split source and/or subpackage-debuginfo packages. We will first need to make sure they
can be switched to use the standard macros or have them explicitly opt-out before making
this the default.
But it is unclear when the mass rebuild is going to be (I assumed it would already have
happened by now). If there will be some time till the mass rebuild is going to be done
then it might be possible to complete the above and flip the macros on by default.
Sidenote I will be on vacation and won't be able to help with setting this as default
between August 9 and August 28.
