Hi,
The dropwatch package[1] was retired as Neil Horman left RedHat[2]. But the
upstream status is still active[3]. Since this is still an useful feature
(dump the dropped packets from kernel) for networking debugging. And there
is no replace yet (bpftrace may replace it in future, but not now).
So I'd like to take it first and make it build on latest Fedora. Any comments?
I am not aware of the state this particular package, but in general, you
are free to take over any retired package by submitting a new review
request for it. This is described in the wiki [1, 2, 3]. I understand
that you have not been sponsored to packagers group, so that is a
necessary step as well. That is also described in the linked documentation.
