I've checked the status quo.
Package "reproducer_reversed" starts supplementing package "rpm". "rpm" is installed, but "reproducer_reversed" is not.
- dnf upgarde, no rpm update available: reproducer_reversed is not pulled in
- dnf reinstall rpm: reproducer_reversed is pulled in
- dnf downgrade rpm: reproducer_reversed is pulled in
- dnf upgrade rpm: reproducer_reversed is pulled in
- dnf upgrade, rpm update avilable: reproducer_reversed is pulled in
Would this change proposal actually change the observed behavior? In what way?
Based on Jaroslav's response, I'm afraid the new behavior will be that "reproducer_reversed" doesn't get pulled in in any of those cases (or perhaps just in case #2). But let's wait for Jaroslav to provide a definitive answer.
It might be worth renaming the option "exclude_from_weak_autodetect" to imply its actual effect.
Strawman idea: "weakexclude_unsatisfied_weakdeps_on_upgrade"?
