I called it RPi.GPIO2 to distinguish it from the original implementation. At this point I'd be fine with whatever naming needs to be done in order to get this into Fedora. I had briefly been in touch with Peter Robinson about this package and he suggested trying to get this functionality integrated with Ben Croston's original RPi.GPIO, but I have had no luck getting ahold of him via email. The advantage of obsoleting the broken RPi.GPIO package would be that the replacement would be fully transparent, but this package, with the '2', would still come up via a `dnf search RPi.GPIO`. However, due to the fact that the fedora RPi.GPIO package has been quietly broken for years at this point, I don't think many people were using it in the first place. Fedora was somewhat painful to use on the rpi3 in my experience, however usage on the rpi4 is much better and I think there is much more potential for Fedora on these newer models. Recently I tested this library on my rpi4B and besides a few needed tweaks to the tests it worked very well. Anyway, I have been emailing Kushal every now and then since I saw comment 4, but I have not heard from him and I am not sure how to move this forward. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
