It looks like the nonresponsive maintainer process is going to proceed.
I've done some analysis of the Go packages that will be orphaned so the
Go SIG can figured out how to handle this. This was done by hand, so
please excuse any errors.
The following packages are dependencies of golang-github-docker{,-cli} and/or
containerd:
1. golang-github-hanwen-fuse
2. golang-github-fvbommel-sortorder
3. golang-github-containerd-nri
4. golang-github-moby-locker
5. golang-github-moby-term
6. golang-github-tonistiigi-rosetta
7. golang-github-google-containerregistry
8. golang-github-containerd-stargz-snapshotter (FTBFS)
9. golang-github-kyokomi-emoji is a dependency of hugo
olem also maintained open-policy-agent and some of its
dependencies:
- open-policy-agent
- golang-github-yashtewari-glob-intersection (open-policy-agent is the only dependent)
- golang-uber-automaxprocs (dependency of both open-policy-agent and
clash)
This maintainer also maintained golang-github-jsonnet-bundler and
golang-github-containerd-cni. These packages are leaves. I sent a
separate message to the golang list about retiring these. I suppose we
could just wait for it to happen automatically.
Many of these libraries are out of date, but only one of them FTBFS
(according to Koschei), which I'd consider pretty good. Updating these
packages will likely require packaging a bunch of new dependencies. I
think eclipseo has been doing some work on the docker side of things,
though. Thanks for that!
I have been keeping containerd and moby-engine up to date. moby-engine
could use a cleanup. Currently, docker-proxy
(github.com/moby/libnetwork), docker-init (bundled tini-static), dockerd
(github.com/moby/moby), and the docker cli (github.com/docker/cli) are
all part of the moby-engine package. This makes the specfile rather
cumbersome. Ideally, it should be split up. I just haven't had the time
to do so. docker cli should be straightforward.
github.com/moby/libnetwork will soon be merged into
github.com/moby/moby, so docker-proxy doesn't make sense to split out
right now. For docker-init, we should investigate whether we could
configure docker to look for the existing tini-static binary or at least
create a symlink. It expects the binary to be installed to
%{_libexecdir}/docker/docker-init. I am really not a fan of the bundled
tini-static.
