Description David Kaspar // Dee'Kej 2018-06-18 13:23:18 UTC
Hello!

Description of problem:
It appears your package depend on 'initscrits' package for some reason. However, most of the initscripts' dependants are no longer valid.

I hereby request you check your package/specfile, and either:
 * drop the initscripts dependancy and close this BZ, or
 * provide a justification in a comment for keeping the dependancy (without closing this BZ)

----------------------

NOTE: In case you are depending on initscripts because of networking scripts, then you will need to update your specfile to depend directly on new package 'network-scripts' (instead of 'initscripts').

If this is the case, please let us know in the comments and do not close the BZ  yet.

Additional info:
The requested change here is valid for Rawhide (F29) only. Do not backport these changes into F28 or F27, because it would break things.

Thank you for your co-operation! :)

It's for '/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts', it seems this directory is in f29 provided by the network-scripts package (previously it has been provided by the initscripts package) which itself builds from the initscripts SRPM. I guess there are people still using it, so I will switch the requirement.

Yes, for the 'ppp' we can't drop the requirements yet, and switching it to 'network-scripts' should be enough... ;) Thanks!
