You do not understand how Kodi development works and had no idea what I was
doing, development-wise, locally.
Sure,
Kodi 16 is end-of-life. There will be no further point releases to
Kodi 16.
That means Fedora 24 will be stuck with an old, unsupported, and
unmaintained version for a year. Fedora's take on software that follows this
release model make exceptions and allow major releases to occur. Example:
Firefox.
Please read again what I've said, I have no issue to backport kodi
17
to stable (f24) at some point.
There is nothing wrong against updating f24 kodi 16 to 17 18 or
whatever. But having the repo and upgrade path broken for 23-->24 user
migration is more a problem. This is a rel-eng concern.
I was committing and syncing the 16.1-1 commit that had been sitting
in wait
since April while I was locally working on Kodi 17. I was going to skip the
16.1 build for F24 and move to 17. There was no need to commit any other
patches. It is not my fault that you jumped the gun and attempted a build,
which I already knew would fail. I did not ask for a build.
Sure , but where would
I know this info ? The patch that was made
available to you on github has fixed the build.
If this is how you are going to treat your contributors then I am
considering dropping my involvement in RPMFusion. You have never been
considerate of my help and continuously belittle me. I do not appreciate it.
That is not my indend.
