Fwiw, I tried this earlier today and it threw errors when trying to do the pkgdb orphan step: remote: Emitting a message to the fedmsg bus. To ssh://jwboyer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ql2100-firmware 37373c3..08b4818 master -> master Error: Auth was requested but no way to perform auth was given. Please set username and password or session_id before calling this function with auth=True Could not retire package: Command '['pkgdb-cli', 'orphan', '--retire', 'ql2100-firmware', 'devel']' returned non-zero exit status 5 [jwboyer@zod ql2100-firmware]$ I also tried running the pkgdb-cli command by itself with --user and --password specified, but that didn't work either. josh -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
