Hello fellow Rust packagers,
I am progressing with my "spring cleaning" efforts for the Rust stack,
and it became apparent that there's a few clusters of packages that
are actually unused, but which regularly take up a non-insignificant
amount of my package maintenance time.
The gstreamer-rs stack seems to have been imported in preparation for
packaging an application (maybe shortwave?) over three years ago (!),
but that effort seems to have been abandoned, and as a result, the
following packages have been unused since (but were actively
maintained and updated to new versions):
- rust-gstreamer
- rust-gstreamer-sys
- rust-gstreamer-audio
- rust-gstreamer-audio-sys
- rust-gstreamer-base
- rust-gstreamer-base-sys
- rust-gstreamer-editing-services
- rust-gstreamer-editing-services-sys
- rust-gstreamer-pbutils
- rust-gstreamer-pbutils-sys
- rust-gstreamer-player
- rust-gstreamer-player-sys
- rust-gstreamer-video
- rust-gstreamer-video-sys
Hi Fabio,
tpm pointed out on IRC that gst-plugins-rs uses rust-gstreamer. We don't have gst-plugins-rs in Fedora, but I suspect it's something we might need in the future.
I've been meaning to try my hand on rust packaging for a while now so perhaps I could try to package up gst-plugins-rs and maybe help maintain the rust-gstreamer stack as well?
It would be a pity to retire the rust-gstreamer packages if it turns out half a year later that we actually need them.
