I was initially thinking I should just retire grhino, which has not been
updated since 2010 and will be affected by libgnome retirement, but...
there's a lot of other packages that will be affected if libgnome is
pulled.
Is it still worth maintaining? If libgnome should be retired I guess we
should proactively retire them now rather than waiting after the mass
rebuild then having to untag packages from f38 too.
We (gnome-sig) have already and proactively retired the libgnome package and others few weeks ago - https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/message/RKCWXFPGLMAMHYYSRLRFEGWU4UFNY3V7/ - but they were then taken by others.
