Re: Package review requests: Splitting the "sustmi" GNOME Shell extensions into separate packages

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

 



Update: I'm still working on splitting the "sustmi" GNOME Shell extension subpackages into their own packages. I've opened an issue on the releng pagure page:

https://pagure.io/releng/issue/7124

I've also executed `fedpkg retire ...` for the old package on EPEL7, f27, and master. And the package review requests for the newly split packages have passed. The Bugzilla threads are here:

* HistoryManager Prefix Search -- https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1506428
* WindowOverlay Icons -- https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1506429

I *think* I might be done with my part of the process, but I haven't gotten any feedback in a little while. Is there anything else I need to do?

Thanks,
~ Andrew Toskin / terrycloth
