I think this is pretty uncontroversially bad :) 17:13:22 Not me. 17:14:05 +1 to ban. 17:14:33 +1 17:15:05 I can work on a PR as soon as this hellish week is over. 17:15:12 #action Ban use of %configure in %prep (+1:∞, 0:0, -1:0) 17:15:37 #topic #pr-1157 Drop redundant Source and Patch numbers 17:15:38 https://pagure.io/packaging-committee/pull-request/1157 17:16:53 I'm confused by some uses of Patch0 %patch0 are replaced by Patch1 / %patch1 17:17:40 That seems...silly. 17:18:06 yeah, I don't think that is intentional. 17:18:22 I can see this being useful if you have a bunch of patches, and don't refer to them individually 17:18:59 As some wording where we say "this is allowed, but if you want to refer to specific patches/sources you should still number things" 17:19:43 Not sure if it was intentional or not, but it's too late to change now so w/e 17:22:32 In general I think this is fine, but: 17:23:18 I think we invite confusion when we don't number but later refer to something by number. 17:23:45 yeh, I think that's what I said ;) 17:24:03 I think we should mention this explicitly, say that in general the guidelines won't number patches but that we will if there is a need to refer to things by number. 17:24:07 In the FPC drinking game, I'mnot sure which of us should take a shot now ;) 17:24:09 C barfs when you do that. 17:24:19 And then just be consistent. 17:24:20 All of us, just for goo d measure. 17:24:24 s/goo/good/, s/d// 17:24:28 * geppetto hi5s GwynCieslasheher 17:25:42 🍸 17:26:24 I think https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#_tags_and_sections is a good place to hang this. 17:27:51 Sure 17:29:52 #topic Open Floor 17:29:59 Anyting else anyone wants to talk about? 17:30:54 i sent in my pr for the explicit lists thing 17:31:02 https://pagure.io/packaging-committee/pull-request/1160 17:31:12 i guess i should have tagged that for the meeting 17:32:56 It's got +2 in the ticket,. 17:32:58 s/,././ 17:33:08 you can have +1 from me too 17:33:45 i think it's ready to merge unless anyone has suggestions for phrasing tweaks 17:34:02 Seems clear to me 17:34:26 More professinal than OMG FFS don't 17:34:35 s/professinal/professional/ 17:35:07 I'd prefer more automation, and have some other way to catch problems … and I worry that people will just blindly add any commands that appear in bindir anyway … but would also like $666 million :) 17:35:09 i give miro most of the credit as i shamelessly copied most of his phrasing 17:38:02 You want someone else to click merge button? 17:39:06 Ok, if nobody speaks up I'll close in another minute 17:39:24 Enjoy your bonus 20 minutes :) 17:39:34 It seems people are mad about the package notes "feature"? But that's probably for FESCo and not for FPC? 17:39:37 Yissssss 17:39:47 yeh, I looked at that 17:39:55 I don't think we did anything 17:40:03 Yeah, that probably shouldn't have gone in. 17:40:04 and I don't think we can fix it 17:40:20 It has the word package in it ergo it's our fault. 17:40:21 Aside from backing it out, there isn't much we could do. 17:41:00 I don't think the general sentiment has gone so far as to start blaming people. 17:41:23 But FESCo should probably talk about whether they want it backed out. 17:41:31 yeah :( 17:41:42 sorry for the diversion, feel free to # endmeeting now :) 17:41:51 no problem 17:41:58 If they do, then there are plenty of people who can actually back it out. 17:42:00 #endmeeting
