Description Artem S. Tashkinov 2019-07-21 18:23:08 UTC
The latest gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free update (1.16.0-2.fc30) has enabled the libgstlv2.so library which pulls in four additional dependencies to this otherwise dependencies-free package, namely:

lilv
serd
sord
sratom

Will it be too much to ask to make the libgstlv2.so library a separate RPM package, e.g. gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free-plugin-lv2 or something like that?

Thank you!

Comment 1 Artem S. Tashkinov 2019-07-21 18:31:09 UTC
In my defense I don't remember that Fedora has ever enabled additional dependencies for its packages during one distro version lifetime or maybe it only applies to RHEL.

Anyways, if there are strong objections to my proposal, then this bug report might be safely closed.

Comment 2 Wim Taymans 2019-09-27 14:29:39 UTC
No objections here, I'll have a look.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 31 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 31 on 2020-11-24.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
Fedora 'version' of '31'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 31 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.
