Dear change owner, this is a reminder that your change is required to be 100% code complete by August 26, which is the start of beta freeze. Please provide a status update on your change in the Incomplete Changes Report if you are not able to move your change to 'ON_QA' before this date. If you need to defer your change to the next Fedora release, please let me know and I will reassign this bug and the change page. Thank you kindly.
Would probably need to push this to F44 since it would still require quite a few PRs to be created. I will try to automate push a bunch of PRs, but it would be too much pain to make beta freeze exceptions for each package, so better to push it back to F44 instead.
Reassigning this change to F44 as per FESCo decision https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/3465
Hi fedora, how goes this change for F44? The testable deadline is today, February 03, 2026, and changes need to be in good shape at this point https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/program_management/changes_policy/#_change_process_milestones Please let me know if you need to defer this to F45, otherwise if you're good to go for the change to be ready to meet the testable requirements, please update the status of the tracker bug to MODIFIED. Thanks!

Seems this landed rather late? It breaks building lean4 unfortunately, as reported in https://github.com/leanprover/lean4/issues/12575
(In reply to Jens Petersen from comment #9) > It breaks building lean4 unfortunately, as reported in > https://github.com/leanprover/lean4/issues/12575 Alright I should have read the page I guess... %global _cmake_generator "Unix Makefiles" seems to unblock me.
