Busy day for RPM build tooling 🎉
Copr has a new release — project pages now have a public "Actions" tab listing the background actions of the project (createrepo, fork, delete, …), with status, timing and a detail page for each.
https://docs.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/release-notes/2026-10-01.htmlMock v6.9 is out too (plus mock-core-configs v45.2). Heads up: Mock
ow always runs rpmbuild with --noclean, so the %clean section of your spec file is no longer executed during a Mock build.

XScreenSaver on Fedora Wayland with retrosaver
Since I switched to GNOME and Wayland on my desktop I have been missing XScreenSaver.
@jwz is rightly not planning to add support for this unless there are some significant changes in GNOME.
I found retrosaver, which gives me the nice hacks for now.
