    A lot of problems caused by:

       XXX requires font(:lang=en)

    which seems to have been triggered by:

    weeks ago

    I don't really understand this one TBH.


I do not understand the reason behind this package getting orphaned. May I know how it gets orphaned? I don't even remember now who was the previous owner of this package? Does the orphaning of the package get recorded in the datagrepper log?

Not sure if recorded, but I happen to have a backup of the metadata from ~20 ages ago:

https://github.com/fedora-python/portingdb/blob/3930184bdb/data/pagure_owner_alias.json

It suggests it was frixxon who owned the packaged before it was orphaned.
