Thanks for the clarification. So the mass rebuild effectively waives
all previous gating failures. I don't think there's a good choice here,
either approach has its problems. 8-/
Maybe in the future, perhaps we should do the mass rebuild, tag it in,
and then re-run all gating tests to see what kind of regressions there
are?
I would certainly not vote against this :)
And if we get to the point where we can run tests again mass-rebuilds to find
regressions across our entire package selection, I think Fedora will be in a
good place then :)
