python-sqlalchemy0.5 is a forward compat package for EPEL and F-10. For
F-11 and F-12 (current devel) it's not needed. Please block the package.
Around F-13 or F-14 we may request to unblock the package for use as a
backwards-compat package when the main python-sqlalchemy moves to a new
incompatible version but that's a ways off yet.

Torrent changes
by Jesse Keating
I've done a couple things with the torrents this week and I want you all
to be aware of it, in case something happens.
1) I've removed anything that is older than F-10. All F8/9 content has
been removed from the web listing, and if nobody complains in a week or
so I'll remove the torrent files themselves.
2) I've re-generated all the live torrents, all the Fedora 12 Alpha
torrents, and the Snapshot 1 torrents. These have been re-generated
with a README-SOURCES file that tells users where they can go to get the
matching sources. This has reset the download counters for all of the
torrents that got re-generated, but was necessary for GPL compliance.
Please ping me if anybody discovers an issue with the torrents.

So systemtap wasn't considered usable before this? I am not a GCC
expert, but I can see how this feature would help it. But it was surely
usable before this, right?

I have every confidence that you and Alex will fix all the bugs reported.
I also think the code itself is likely fairly stable, and may very well
provide some usability wins overall. Your competence as a developer is
not, nor ever was, in question so please don't misunderstand my
questioning.
The largest problem I have with all this is the fact that the release
guidelines that everyone else has to follow don't appear to be followed
at all in this case. You're introducing a backported feature into a
critical path package after Feature freeze, and after a mass-rebuild
which would have arguably helped test the hell out of this. Any other
maintainer would have to get an exception from rel-eng and/or FESCo in
order to do something like this. I don't see why the same requirements
don't apply here.

Why are you backporting something like this from a non-released compiler
into F12 _after_ Alpha and particularly _after_ the mass rebuild?

Hello there,
I wish to request the possibility for a chain build (on F-10) with guile-
gnome-platform-2.16.1-3.fc10.src.rpm. It is built by me and I need to it
to build gwave for F-10.
repoquery --whatrequires `repoquery --provides guile-gnome-platform`
says gwave is the only package depending on guile-gnome-platform. Hence
the chain build will not result in any breakage.

thank you
