The packages look like they were retired after being orphaned for a few fedora cycles. You'll need to resubmit them proper, but should be able to base the new packages on the existing ones pre-retirement. And in the case of moneta, the package version is the same so that can just be resubmitted as is. If you need some help seeing these through (or w/ getting Chef in Fedora in general), shout out on the ruby-sig mailing list [1] and we can help you out. -Mo [1] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ruby_SIG On 10/31/2012 05:48 PM, Julian C.
