Description Lukas Slebodnik 2018-07-12 11:32:40 UTC
Description of problem:
NVR(Name version release) of cryptsetup if lower than version in rawhide
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=12706
and therefore it is not possible to easily upgrade to latest version in rawhide.

Fedora packaging guidelines says:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Versioning

"""
The versioning scheme also ensures that for a package built at the same time for two different Fedora releases, the version in the newer release sorts higher than the version in the older release.
"""

and 

"""
* Rawhide is allowed to lag temporarily

A package MAY temporarily have a lower EVR in Rawhide when compared to a release branch of Fedora ONLY in the case where the package fails to build in Rawhide. This permits important updates to be pushed to existing Fedora releases regardless of the current state of Rawhide. 
"""

But there is not any failed build of cryptsetup in rawhide

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

cryptsetup-2.0.3-4.fc28
vs
cryptsetup-2.0.3-3.fc29
