Hello everyone,
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Join_the_package_collection_maintainers
recommended to introduce myself so here it is.
My name is Ewoud Kohl van Wijngaarden (commonly known as ekohl) and I
in my day job I work on the Foreman project[1]. Historically I've
mostly been involved with the (Puppet-based) installer but over time
I've also worked on most aspects of the project. Most notably I've
also done quite a bit of the packaging[2].
Right now I want to become a Fedora maintainer to improve the state of
the Puppet package and its dependencies. It's totally broken in Fedora
34 which is holding back my F33 -> F34 upgrade.
I've also contributed patches upstream and have a good working
relationship with Puppet (formerly Puppetlabs).
As a start I've reviewed a PR to update Facter[3].
Something else I'd like to do is bring puppet-resource_api into
Fedora. Right now it's only packaged for EPEL8[4] but we'd need it in
Fedora too.
Once that's all done, I'd like to update Puppet itself from 5.5.20
(incompatible with Ruby 3) to 7.7.0. I have a patch ready, but need to
fix it to also package the bundled modules.
So a concrete list of packages I'd be interested in keeping up to date:
* https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/facter
* https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/puppet
* https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/rubygem-puppet-resource_api
Regards,
Ewoud Kohl van Wijngaarden
