Is there a reason why you're not packaging the latest version (0.3.0)?

We're packaging rust-vhost-user-backend as a dependency for virtiofsd. Version 0.3.0 was released this week just after we cut version 1.2.0 of virtiofsd.

As updating a package in Fedora is way faster than requesting a new package, I thought of getting rust-vhost-user-backend 0.2.0 and virtiofsd 1.2.0 first, then update all depedencies in Fedora, cut version 1.2.1 of virtiofsd with a dependency bump in Cargo.toml, and update its package too. The whole process shouldn't take more than a couple weeks and it minimizes the chances of another mid-air collision (happened to us twice already).

Thanks,
Sergio.

Yup, that makes sense.

Comment 5 Lokesh Mandvekar 2022-05-13 13:15:41 UTC
- Spec Conforms to packaging guidelines (rust2rpm generated spec)
- license correct and valid
- only sources installed

Package approved.

Might wanna consider using rpm-autospec as it could make life a lot easier https://docs.pagure.org/Fedora-Infra.rpmautospec/index.html .

The package has hit the Rawhide compose. Thanks Lokesh and Gwyn!
