I have too many packages that I am the maintainer for and need help. If you would like to help out by either becoming a co-maintainer or becoming the primary maintainer, please let me know. The full list follows. Many of these I just made the scitech_sig group co-mainter of as described here: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/scitech@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/thread/76IZTKYWTLQL35FJAWEWBNUIGRAQJQX7/ so if you are interested in those becoming a member of the scitech_sig, if you are not already, would probably be the easiest. Thanks!

svgalib
As one of the last upstream developers of svgalib I honestly wonder why this is still alive today. Are you maintaining this because it is a dependency of something you care about? Or do you actually care about / use programs which use its functionality ? IMHO the best solution would be to just drop this, which I guess first requires fixing things which needlessly still build an svgalib backend, while they really shouldn't. Checking for runtime deps on F32 gives me: bochs-0:2.6.11-2.fc32.x86_64 bochs-debugger-0:2.6.11-2.fc32.x86_64 bochs-gdb-0:2.6.11-2.fc32.x86_64 gnuboy-svgalib-0:1.0.3-24.fc32.x86_64 koules-svgalib-0:1.4-31.fc32.x86_64 lcdproc-0:0.5.9-6.20190625git781b311.fc32.x86_64 I'm co-maintainer of lcdproc and I would be happy to drop the dependency there. It seems that for gnuboy and koules svgalib support already lives in a subpackage so it would just be a matter of dropping (*) these sub packages. So that just leaves bochs, where I guess we can probably also just build it without svgalib support. So what is your take on working towards just dropping svgalib?
