I'd like to request an update policy exception for the crosswords and libipuz packages (the latter is a library only used by the former). Specifically, I'd like to get crosswords 0.3.14 in f41; this brings over a vastly improved editor, among other things. It also comes with a bump in the libipuz library version and drops s390x support (which I doubt anybody used tbh) in the crosswords package (which is a leaf); s390x support remains in libipuz.
+1
Seems reasonable. If there's no dependent in Fedora the one-week heads up in devel is not needed, right?
❯ fedrq whatrequires -X libipuz crossword-editor-0.3.13.3-8.fc42.x86_64 crosswords-0.3.13.3-8.fc42.x86_64 crosswords-thumbnailer-0.3.13.3-8.fc42.x86_64 ❯ fedrq whatrequires -X libipuz -F source crosswords ❯ fedrq whatrequires -X libipuz -F source -b f41 crosswords
Note that libipuz Rust stuff in v0.5.1 looks very fishy: https://gitlab.gnome.org/jrb/libipuz/-/blob/0.5.1/libipuz/rust/Cargo.toml
It depends on two different branches of the GTK bindings at the same time, I don't even know how that compiles ... because it shouldn't. It should depend on either 0.18 or 0.19, not both (also looks like some of those direct dependencies are actually not needed).
Assuming that can be resolved (preferably by moving to 0.19 for everything, v0.18 is deprecated in f42 and I'm planning to file a CP to retire it in f43), I'm +1 for the exception.

Thanks! Put up https://gitlab.gnome.org/jrb/libipuz/-/merge_requests/81 for that.
Seems okay to me. +1

Is this a one time request? Or are there expected to be more and this is a request for an ongoing exception?
I'm +1 to a onetime
It's a onetime request.
After a week, as per FESCo voting rules, this request is now marked as APPROVED (+5, 0, 0)
