In the past we've installed some packages, that were removed from ansible and it would make sense to list them in the blacklist in order to cleanup existing installations that someone can already have.
The list of the removed packages is:
polkit-devel glibc-rpcgen on Fedora > 27 (it was glibc-common)
Anyway, this can be a followup patch.
The rpcgen stuff is pretty confusing, even though I'm the one who made the change :) Anyway, glibc-rpcgen no longer seems to exist in rawhide, while glibc-common can't be removed because packages depend on it, so I guess there's no cleaning up required there.
Nothing should have depended on glibc-rpcgen at all - it was just a temporary hack - any dep should have been on "rpcgen" (glibc-rpcgen provided that as a virutal Provides), and the new RPM has that correct name. Prior to F27 just glibc-common is right.
As for polkit-devel, I'm trying to figure out a nice way to add it to the blacklist... The current naming convention is along the lines of
foo: deb: libfoo-dev rpm: foo-devel
so it doesn't fit neatly in there, because we want to blacklist polkit-devel but still install polkit itself. Maybe we could have
blacklist-polkit: rpm: polkit-devel
or something similar as a workaround? Does that look reasonable?
Alternatively we can just leave the package installed, of course :)
