Hmm, from the upstream website:

AFAIK it's not against any guideline to add dead/EOL code into Fedora, well you
will maintain it :) , but such packages are usually quickly orphaned or dropped
when something breaks and can also pose higher security risk.

Cannot be the project of interest switched to libtickit or some different
library? Maybe some work for now, but definitely less maintainer work in the
future.
