Re: EPEL libbluray soname bump in

The only dependency for this library is mplayer from RPM Fusion. mplayer maintainer is ok to rebuild, but RPM Fusion admin is not ok to grant a buildroot override. I know the update is a soname bump, it was my mistake to build an early libbluray version in EPEL, and I won't do it again, but I don't see how plainly refusing the buildroot override without explanation from any side is helping, especially when the maintainer of the one and only depending package is ok to rebuild. I'm just trying to have a maintainable and useful library in EPEL, and I'd rather drop it than keep it this way, because it is missing a lot of features and will break sooner or later. People will just have to wait for RHEL 7 and clones to get it again. In short, I don't want to maintain this old libbluray in EPEL 6 and there's nothing I can do to avoid the temporary breakage unless RPM Fusion admin changes his mind, so either one find a way to have it updated then mplayer rebuilt against it, either I'll probably drop it and other dependant packages (which will require an mplayer rebuild anyway). Adding rpmfusion-devel to recipients. And btw, how to request an override in RPM Fusion is not documented, so I did not know it was even possible. If anyone feels like explaining the process, I might add it to the wiki, to avoid other people wasting time searching about this like I did. And while I think about it, how to retire a package is not documented either, but I should be able to recollect the process from memory and logs. Regards, Xavier
