Description Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2009-10-10 12:29:47 UTC

Description of problem:
compiz.spec have:
---
Conflicts:	xorg-x11-server-Xorg < 1.3.0.0-19.fc8
Requires:	mesa-libGL >= 7.0.1-2.fc8
---
Thoses seems outdated Requires/Conflicts according that they mention fc8 which are EOL distro. Furthermore, refering the packaging guideline:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Explicit_Requires
"Packagers should revisit an explicit dependency as appropriate to avoid it becoming inaccurate and superfluous. For instance in the example above, when no current Fedora release shipped with libfubar < 1.2.3-7, it is no longer necessary to list the explicit, versioned requirement. "


Can you please avoid using theses outdated requires/Conflicts.

Re-Assigned to the current maintainer.

Comment 2 Adel Gadllah 2009-11-08 12:34:01 UTC

Fixed in compiz-0.8.2-19.fc13

Comment 3 Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2009-11-08 12:40:45 UTC

No, it's not, you are still using Requires: mesa-libGL, that line must be deleted because the dependency extractor will pick the accurate shared object already.

Right, fixed that in -20 and removed some other unneeded versioned requires.
