#3901 Please block xorg-x11-drv-radeonhd from rawhide/F14
Closed: Fixed None Opened 13 years ago by ndim.

I am intending to retire the xorg-x11-drv-radeonhd starting with F14 as announced in

http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2010-July/139163.html

This ticket is to ask rel-eng for "the [xorg-x11-drv-radeonhd] package to be blocked from the appropriate collections in which it is retired" according to

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_remove_a_package_at_end_of_life

Unfortunately, the maintainers of xorg-x11-drv-ati have not added the appropriate "Obsoletes:" yet (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=617149), so I have not actually committed the xorg-x11-drv-radeonhd dead.package file yet or marked xorg-x11-drv-radeonhd as "retired" in the pkgdb. My current plan is to do that once a new xorg-x11-drv-ati is available, unless directed otherwise.


ok, blocked.

IMO, go ahead and mark as retired now, no need to wait on the Obsoletes (but it's ultimately up to you).

If the Obsoletes takes too long to happen, we can always flex a little provenpackager muscle here.
