Comment 1 Michael Catanzaro 2020-08-17 14:41:13 UTC

I think this is a bug in how we Obsoletes packages from fedora-obsolete-packages. Our policy is:

# All Obsoletes: entries MUST be versioned (including the release), with the
# version being the same as or just higher than the last version-release of the
# obsoleted package.  This allows the package to return to the distribution
# later.  The best possible thing to do is to find the last version-release
# which was in the distribution, add one to the release, and add that version
# without using a dist tag.  This allows a rebuild with a bumped Release: to be
# installed.

So following that policy, fedora-obsolete-packages has:

# Remove in F35
%obsolete_ticket https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1781359
%obsolete epiphany-runtime 1:3.36.0-2

But this has failed because Epiphany of course still gets updated in Fedora 32 and is now at version 1:3.36.3-1. It's going to keep getting updated indefinitely to higher 3.36 versions. To keep it obsoleted for good, we would have to set this to at least 1:3.37.0-0. That's not what the guidance says to do, but surely it's the right thing to do here because if we set it to one release after the last build, it will break next time we update F32 again. (There's even a new update pending already, 3.36.4.)

Comment 2 Miro Hrončok 2020-08-17 19:06:21 UTC

We can surely obsolete something like 1:3.36.99 and bump the epoch if it ever gets reintroduced.

Comment 3 Michael Catanzaro 2020-08-17 19:29:50 UTC

1:3.36.99 will be fine.

Epiphany in rawhide is already 3.37 so no need to worry about epoch.

Comment 4 Miro Hrončok 2020-08-20 11:57:52 UTC

Pushed, but Koji cannot build now.
