[PSA] expect some broken dependencies and builds for Rust packages
Hi everybody,
It appears that eclipseo missed some dependencies when pushing his
latest updates in the Rust stack - which should've "only" updated
rav1e to the latest version, but turned out to have a much bigger
scope. These mega-rust-stack-updates have been submitted to Rawhide,
Fedora 35, and 34:
- https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2021-d30f9d81fe
- https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2021-1937205ae5
- https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2021-b9e6038b3b
The Rawhide update is already stable, and has spawned a growing list
of FTI and FTBFS issues there. Rust SIG members should expect some
amount of "broken dependency" notifications, and some failed builds in
rawhide when trying to build any Rust package in rawhide.
I'm trying to work through the issues with the rawhide update, and
once I'm satisfied that I solved all of them, I'll try to salvage the
F35 and F34 updates, as well. They won't get pushed to stable until I
fix them, because I already gave them -1 karma. Having them sit in
"updates-testing" does until then does no harm though, since the
broken dependencies are limited to build-time dependencies, and do not
affect or prevent installation of end-user-targeted packages - which
is why I have not "unpushed" those two updates while I work on fixing
the remaining problems.
