Orphaning PycURL

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I am going to be orphaning the PycURL package...  Upstream is dead,
the last new release was in 2008.  Yet, PycURL is a critical part of
Fedora as Yum uses it to download metadata and packages.

The final straw is that the package failed to build in the latest mass rebuild:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=914411

There are a number of other bugs associated with PycURL, but I didn't
want to become the de facto upstream so I've resisted efforts to apply
patches to the code.

Personally, I'd like to see Yum move away from PycURL but if someone
wants to take over upstream development more power to them.
