I know it's not unusual to carry builds over from prior releases. My
understanding is that happens because there was no mass rebuild.
However, when I look at the F29 repo I see
rubygem-puppet-lint-1.1.0-2.fc23.noarch.rpm. Was there really no mass
rebuild between F23 and F29? This package is severely outdated --
upstream has v2.3.6 and v1.1.0 dates back to 2014. It looks like a
build hasn't succeeded in Koji since F23. I don't know why because I
don't see any build logs for any of these failures. I also was under
the impression that FTBS packages like this get culled.
Is my understanding buggy or did this leak through somehow?
You can see that all mass rebuilds failed:
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=14781
And there are several FTBFS bugs reported (including closed due to EOL):
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=CLOSED&component=rubygem-puppet-lint&list_id=10071090&product=Fedora&product=Fedora%20EPEL&query_format=advanced
Looking at the logs from the oldest bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1308068
I guess the origin of the issues is that it does not yet use
%gem_install macro and the rubygems `--rdoc` option was deprecated
around F24 time.
And it looks like the maintainer is MIA in all that time ... not a
single response:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1349208
Looking at src.fp.org, this is the only package that's associated with
this maintainer.
So I think in this case you can safely initiate the "Nonresponsive
Maintainer" process ...

I wish I had the time to pursue this as I've been wanting to get more
involved in Fedora packaging (as opposed to the gobs of
private/corporate packaging I've been doing) for years. I finally got
around to getting sponsored and since then my life has become a complete
turmoil. Sadly, this looks just about my speed if I did have the time.
Nonetheless, shouldn't this have been culled for FBTFS?
