            Bug ID: 1778530
           Summary: Review Request: libfido2 - FIDO2 libraries and
                    utilities for support of U2F / WebAuthn
           Product: Fedora
           Version: rawhide
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux

Spec URL:
https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/gtb/libfido2/fedora-31-x86_64/01121536-libfido2/libfido2.spec 

SRPM URL:
https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/gtb/libfido2/fedora-31-x86_64/01121536-libfido2/libfido2-1.3.0-1.fc31.src.rpm

Description: libfido2 is an open source library to support the FIDO2 protocol. 
FIDO2 is an open authentication standard that consists of the W3C Web
Authentication specification (WebAuthn API), and the Client to Authentication
Protocol (CTAP).  CTAP is an application layer protocol used for communication
between a client (browser) or a platform (operating system) with an external
authentication device (for example the Yubico Security Key).

Fedora Account System Username: gtb

Benefit to Fedora: In addition to the ability to manage and utilize U2F/FIDO2
authenticators, this package will allow OpenSSH to use a U2F authenticator for
storage/protection of ssh keys.  This package compliments the python3-fido
package.

This is my first Fedora package, and I need a sponsor.  I am not an upstream
maintainer of the libfido2 project, although I have submitted issues/patches
that have been accepted.  I am a packager in rpmfusion for the xmltv package.

The package is available in Fedora Copr (as the provided spec/srpm references
show) at: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/gtb/libfido2/


Note: the libfido2 package ships a "naked" .so library file libsk-libfido2.so
(in addition to versioned libraries for other uses) for integration with
OpenSSH (see https://marc.info/?l=openssh-unix-dev&m=157259802529972&w=2 for
the how-to).  This naked .so file appears to technically be in violation of one
of the MUSTs in packaging if a -devel library is shipped.  The alternative
would seem to be to not ship a -devel library.
