You mean each lib* has a tag with the  <library>-<version> as name? I
have been using the upstream tag name, I can retag using
<library>-<version> for sure, thanks.

Some can, others can't. I will try again while trying to avoid custom patch=

Thanks! Ping me if there are any issues with the added ones (green now
for the added ones), I can fix them if needed. I am adding libtiff.
Would it be ok to add 4.7.2RCn for 8.6? it is about to be released and
contains some sec fixes, then update to final 4.7.2 when released.

best,
