The following packages are orphaned and will be retired when they

that the package should be retired, please do so now with a proper reason:

Note: If you received this mail directly you (co)maintain one of the affected
packages or a package that depends on one. Please adopt the affected package or
retire your depending package to avoid broken dependencies, otherwise your
package will be retired when the affected package gets retired.

Grep the list for your FAS name, follow the transitive deps:

I'm sorry but just dropping all the java packages because they have
been moved to modules, totally breaking rawhide is simply unacceptable.

A solution for this needs to be found and be in place *before* dropping
these packages not the otherway around.

We are working to make rawhide more stable:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure_2020/Rawhide_Gating

Yet we are going to go ahead with this java package removal and
break the world? That is just totally unacceptable. I've filed a
FESCo issue requesting FESCo to block this:

p.s.

I must admit that I've been too busy with other things to closely
follow the whole modularity process. So far most talk has been
about BuildRequires, but what about regular Requires, can a
package in the base repo have a Requires on a package only
available in a module ?
