Should the update policy for rust-devel packages be relaxes in stable
releases to allow updates to follow rawhide, at least if there are
no major breaking changes?
Current update policy states that major version changes should be avoided
in after stable release. But rust upstreams tend to move quickly, so having
~1 year old packages in stable Fedora might not be too useful to build
newest upstreams. It might make sense to allow the rust-*-devel packages
to be updated more aggressively.
This is probably a good idea.
