Hello, Some more misc packages I'd like to orphan. I orphaned only devel. I'd like to remain co-maintainer. I'd prefer also be only co-maintainer for other branches, but obviously only if somebody volunteer to be the primary maintainer. So if you want to be maintainer, please state for which branches. Some already have co-maintainers, they should have priority for ownership. In my opinion gnash and tetex-tex4ht are strategic packages for Fedora and if nobody steps up a kind of collective maintainance should be organized. * gnash People interested in gnash should also take agg and flasm, in my opinion. They should also help reviewing ming: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=232790 And also mtasc, I added it to the wishlist and made a srpm here: http://www.environnement.ens.fr/perso/dumas/fc-srpms/mtasc-1.13-0.1.cvs04062008.fc10.src.rpm ming and mtasc are used for tests. (and also swftools, but I think that swftools packaging is still out of reach for now). * flasm * agg The OpenDAP server stack (an interested maintainer should take them all... and maybe package olfs, the hyrax front-end): * bes * dap-server * dap-freeform_handler * dap-hdf4_handler * dap-netcdf_handler * tetex-tex4ht It should be renamed tex-tex4ht. There is a system of 2 level sources. Literal sources are included, but second level sources are really used. With the debian packager, and with upstream, we collaborated on a debian script that can be used to rebuild the second level sources from the literate sources. * elektra * wdm There is the Consolekit issue. I hope that it would be fixed one day? It is an interesting package in my opinion since it looks good while being very lightweight. Trouble is that upstream is dead and so is not resyncing with xdm, so retiring this package may unfortunatly be the best thing to do. * debootstrap I should not be the primary maintainer, but only a co-maintainer, don't know how I became primary maintainer. Those perl modules are very low maintainance: * perl-File-NFSLock * perl-Cache * perl-Feed-Find * perl-Heap * perl-HTML-FormatText-WithLinks * perl-LWP-Authen-Wsse * html2ps This is an a2ps dependency. There are unresolved bugs that can be seen in debian, but overall it works fine and is pretty dead upstream so is very low maintainance. * pmount Very low maintainance * pam_ssh Very low maintainance Very low maintainance dead upstream packages * intuitively * ooo2txt * libnet10 Though libnet10 is an older version of a dead package, there are certainly some codes not in fedora that still use that api, for example some stuff here: http://www.stearns.org/doc/pcap-apps.html It is properly parallel installable with libnet so in my opinion should stay indefinitely (or as long as it builds). * libnet There are a lot of people wanting to have shared libraries for this one. I always resisted for the reasons stated in https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Pertusus#On_not_shipping_shared_libraries_when_upstream_doesn.27t especially in that case I think that at some point somebody will resurect libnet since, as far as I know there is no replacement. -- Pat -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
