I guess it is fine to not have a "Fixes" tag here, so I will > remove it then. Normally we use sha in Fixes tag and I am not sure how many scripts we would confuse if there was no but I guess it is good enough to mention the patch name in the description. Theoretically we could have folded it to my patch but I think it would be better to have it separate because a) it gives a nice overview of the mess we should be dealing with and b) the original patch would likely be more convoluted than necessary. -- Michal Hocko SUSE Labs
