I don't like the fix in 1.11.19-9 (adding vim to requires). When trying to update cvs to 1.11.19-10 (from -8), i was forced to install vim-minimal, however, i have no need for vim, and i rather keep this off my system. I prefer joe as editor. Why is it necessary to add vim to the requries of the binary package when it is only required for rebuilding the src rpm? For example, it's used for the commit command when you don't specify a comment by -m switch. But I agree with you, it's bit ugly. |
