Hello,
I'm the maintainer of the nicotine+ package. This package was retired
before F32 branching last year (no Python 3 support at this time) and
I unretired it after a review request and a unretirement request
ticket to releng.
I requested a branch creation for f32 using "fedpkg request-branch",
as suggested in the reply to my unretirement ticket. The SCM ticket is
at https://pagure.io/releng/fedora-scm-requests/issue/27217
As replied on the ticket, I'm supposed to create by myself the branch
using git (git branch -b f32/git push -u origin f32), since "The
branch in PDC already exists" (sic). And I have no right to perform
the branch creation as suggested:
Am I missing something? Is there a particular procedure for unretired packages?
I was in a similar situation recently. Please, have a look here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Orphaned_package_that_need_new_maintainers#Claiming_Ownership_of_a_Retired_Package
In order to unretire a package you need to claim its maintainership and all already existing branches.
Cheers,
Andy
