zbyszek added a new comment to an issue you are following: `` Making mass-rebuild.py not rebuild packages is the least attractive option imho. Making rpmdev-bumpspec smarter would be attractive, but I don't think it's realistic. But there's another way: with the acceptance of ~ and ^ in rpm-4.15, there should be no need for such crazy macros. Those new operators allow the github date to be finally included in the version field where it belongs, and the release field becomes simple.
So I think @ignatenkobrain is correct to close this bug, because this is not the right place to fix this. Instead, we should work to update the guidelines to use ~ and ^ and then work to switch packages (those 291 that you mention) to the new scheme. Then the problem should be solved. ``
