Hi,
I have removed last use of rubygem-memcache-client package in Fedora minutes ago:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/rubygem-rack/c/7490abe4066b965d222764acf0ae164788cf1721
and I think that rubygem-memcache-client would deserve to be retired from
Fedora, because it is deprecated upstream for ~12 years and it functionality
replaced by rubygem-dalli.
However, if I really wanted to do this, I'd need to ask Mo, possibly use
unresponsive maintainer policy. But that is too much hassle, so I'll probably
leave it alone.
But I'd really love to see some process to get such packages removed in much
easier way. E.g.:
1. Open FESCo ticket with the request request
2. Send email to Fedora devel ML to collect feedback
I'd do this, cc the maintainer. Assume they agree / don't care if they don't
argue against it.
3. Within some timeout, make a decision based on the feedback
Use provenpacakger powers to retire the package.
That should follow the spirit of
