Based on the entire discussion so far, here's my proposal:
- we change this to a system wide change
- we move it to Fedora 31
- we retire the packages from rawhide as soon as f30 is branched
regardless of the dependent packages
- packages with broken deps / FTBFS due to this will be retired if not
fixed by beta freeze
+1, but I would like to see some comment from koji developers that this
is realistic with their plans or why not.
Contingency mechanism:
- if some process (releng or similar) needs the packages in order to
ship Fedora 31, the packages are added into a designated copr repo
maintained by the person/team responsible for the tool that needs yum
(or other packages retired)
- if the above is not possible and the packages are indeed needed in
the actual f31 repos, packages are unretired but the person/team
responsible for the tool that needs yum maintains them as long as they
need them and retires them once that is no longer true
I don't think we want to use a copr for this, but we could build the
needed packages in our infra-f30 tag, so they would exist and be usable
by infra but not in the main repos. Of course we would really like to
avoid this...
