So, I'd like to discuss the libgit issue [1] [2] we're
experiencing. With
a help of a few people, I've put together this post to get us on common
ground:

There are few ideas about solving the issue right now. But we might be
able to think about better ways to deal with similar issues long-term.
Let's do this!

As I had posted in a blog comment:
This is exactly the dependency hell (different packages/modules depending on
incompatible versions of the same module) that I had been warning about ever
since modularity has first been discussed in Fedora. I pointed out from day
one that this is a showstopper that makes modularity entirely impractical
and unsupportable. My concerns were dismissed or ignored. Now you are seeing
exactly the situation that I had been warning about from day one.
