How this can happen? I.e., orphaned package with one or more
co-maintainers.
This is definitively repetitive pattern. I wonder whether we
have some process problem?
Why the main admin does not ask co-maintainers first? And if
they are not interested in, why they are still listed as
co-maintainers?
There're few problems which may cause that:
1) There is (was?) bug in pagure which allows any Fedora package
to
orphan any package in the distribution.
2) Some co-maintainers clicked "orphan" button to drop themself
from the list
of the maintainers but this button deletes silently main admin.
3) No notification was sent to co-maintainers in case if main
admin
orphaned the package. In case of (1) or (2) main admin is not
being
notified (happened to me once and I realized my package was
orphaned by
email from bugzilla (so if there're no bugs opened - the package
may be
silently orphaned). I think email to <package>-owners@ at least
should fix this
issue.
4) Package may be orphaned by the team of maintainers (SIG) if all
of them
work in one team (SIG).
5) Main-admin does not have time for Fedora, he doesn't want to
spend
time to contact other people :(
