Description Satoru SATOH 2014-08-18 00:49:42 UTC

Description of problem:
Do you have a plan to rebase dnf in Fedora 20 to 0.6.0 which supports
updateinfo along with other related RPMs, hawkey and libsolv ?

According to the dnf build information on koji [1], there is no
dnf 0.6.x built and available for F20 yet.

If there is no such plan to build dnf >= 0.6.0 for F20, I think about
building these RPMs in copr if it's OK.

Hi, we don't plan to do builds with new features for F20, only with critical bug fixes. Yes, you can maintain unofficial copr repo with dnf early builds for F20 (with no responsibility from dnf team) - thanks.

It is a little hard to do real world testing of updateinfo features, then there is no updateinfo for F21 & Rawhide, is it not a little early to stop making new feature releases in F20, it will reduce the amount of users there is test and using the latest releases.

Maybe making a COPR with released versions of dnf for F20

Thanks for you quick response!

I made an experimental copr repo:
http://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/ssato/dnf/

I emphasized that this repo provides unofficial builds just in case.
Even so, some of users might open bugzilla tickets or report to you, perhaps.
If you bother w/ such cases and want to add more causions or something,
please let me know. I'll update the description of the copr repo to 
avoid misconceptions
