Most recently I was looking at upgrading pungi to python 3 instead of downgrading everything else to python 2, since http://fedora.portingdb.xyz/pkg/pungi/ indicates many of its dependencies are ported, and the former approach is difficult and not sustainable going forward. However whenever I change the packages and get build failures I have to rebuild from scratch to be sure I am testing the right thing, or face unrelated errors. The time it takes to effectively test changes is so long that I fear I am just wasting my (already quite limited) time.\r\n\r\nMy gut feeling is that it shouldn't be this painful to (essentially) download packaged sources, apply some patches and build them in chroot environments, even given the combinations of distro, dom0, vm and vm+flavours. I'll try to find another way to contribute in the meantime."}}
