I tried a scratch build for Mono 5.20 on rawhide.

It failed with this message:

But if I build with bootstrap=1, it works, and if I then use that version, I can build without bootstrap. So we need another permission to do a bootstrap again? is there no other way without bootstrapping? I would want to avoid bootstrapping as much as possible, it is not a major version upgrade.

I have tried hard to work around a bootstrap, and have asked a question at https://github.com/mono/mono/issues/15643 if we really need to do bootstrap between minor releases.

I have now filed a change for Mono 5.20 in F31: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Mono_5_20

We have Mono 5.20.1-1 (from upstream 5.20.1.34) in Rawhide, ready for Fedora 31.
