Hi,
Is it possible to configure koji to do a package rebuild when key components are submitted?
For example, xorg-x11 is currently messed up for a number of subpackages (as is libreoffice - poppler seems broken again). What would be great would be if when xorg-x11 is rebuild, all of the xorg-x11 subpackages are automagically rebuilt and if one of those fails, then the main package fails and so some of the rawhide issues get avoided and nice things like the x server stays up.
Okay, this might not be possible, but it would make life less painful!
I'd suggest xorg, gcc and possibly glibc as prime candidates for this.
Paul (yes, I know rawhide eats babies and it's a risk I've been taking now for years [I can't remember the last time I ran using anything other than rawhide on my own box])

Did --skip-broken not do what you'd wanted?

Yesterday evening skip-broken would install new xorg drivers but not the server package, and x would die on startup stating modules are at abi version 12, but server only at abi version 11 (or something like that, I'm reconstructing from memory)

Unfortunately not. While it has prevented libreoffice from installing, something else is saying that there is an ABI problem with vesa, openchrome and neuveau now which the --skip-broken didn't stop getting through.
What I'm thinking is that if (say) xorg-x11 is built, the drivers also get built to ensure the likes of the ABI problem I've hit doesn't happen

I understand the desire, yes. I was expressing surprise that I hadn't adequately guarded you from desiring it.
