Yeah, I went locally through all dependent packages on F-14 and patched them
where necessary, so F14 is ready to be pushed, but we need to do devel/F-16
first, then F-15 and then F-14.
Hi
Without further arguments, I still consider doing such update in F-14
as a violation of the fedora's
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Updates_Policy
As we follow fedora's guidelines as we can with the exception of the
licensing, I just confirm that this policy applies to RPM Fusion too.
Quoting, "As a result, we should avoid major updates of packages
within a stable release"
So at the fist step, there is a need to have the change reverted, so
If another ffmpeg dependency in fedora break it's ABI for any reason,
we can rebuilt ffmpeg/x264 with the same version as the one already in
the repo.
Then I'm not necessarily against the idea, but I would like to listen
Pro/Con from other maintainers of multimedia packages, after something
has landed in f15 for some time.
