Hi all,
We have a new R version sitting on a side tag (f37-build-side-55653)
for a few weeks now, where packages are being rebuilt as time permits.
Unfortunately, F37 is not rawhide anymore, so the question is whether
this side tag could be safely merged both in F37 and rawhide when it
is ready.
I think you can tag any package anywhere. Therefore should be possible to get
the same build into both Fedoras.
However, it could be unsafe (e.g. a change in C toolchain to distribution
macros). To mitigate it I think you can rebuild the packages in a F38 side tag
without additional commits. Just follow the order which was used in F37 side
tag. The commits exist both in F37 and F38 git branches. F38 builds will get
unique release strings due to differing %dist tag.
