Dear maintainers.

Based on the current fail to build from source policy, the following packages
should be retired from Fedora 39 approximately one week before branching.

5 weekly reminders are required, hence the retirement will happen
approximately in 5 weeks, i.e. around 2023-08-01.

Policy: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Fails_to_build_from_source_Fails_to_install/

The packages in rawhide were not successfully built at least since Fedora 36.

This report is based on dist tags.

Packages collected via:
https://github.com/hroncok/fedora-report-ftbfs-retirements/blob/master/ftbfs-retirements.ipynb

If you see a package that was built, please let me know.
If you see a package that should be exempted from the process,
please let me know and we can work together to get a FESCo approval for that.

So it seems that pretty much all of java is scheduled to go away,

It is not scheduled to go away. It is marked as impacted whent he deps go away.

or at least
have its deps taken away because of:

javapackages-filesystem
javapackages-tools (also through its jpackage-utils alias / Provides)
javapackages-local

This will merely start FTBFS when xmvn-connector-ivy will be retired.

Which all are build from the same javapackages SRPM being FTBFS for a long time now.

No?

Does anyone know what is going on here ?

I think so. javapackages-tools BuidlRequires xmvn-connector-ivy.

Can we please exempt the javapackages srpm from being retired
until we have sorted things out?

They will not be retired based on this policy, only xmvn-connector-ivy will be retired.

That will remove a ton of deps from the list of affected packages.

To remove the packages from the list, somebody would need to manually hack the script or the output. Or javapackages-tools could stop BRing xmvn-connector-ivy. Or xmvn-connector-ivy could be fixed. Or retired sooner.
