I'm the upstream developer/maintainer for vile (vi like emacs) and a few other programs packaged in Fedora. The vile rpm is a couple of years out of date, now, and I don't see recent activity by the package maintainer.
What can I do to get it moving again?
(Earlier this year, I restored a couple that had been orphaned, but that isn't the current state for vile).
Hello,
mmckinst seems to have been marked as an Inactive Packager looking at the recently introduced Inactive Packager Policy: https://pagure.io/find-inactive-packagers/issue/230
As such, he will loose packager status in two months in case he doesn't answer.
If you don't want to wait for two months, you can follow the Non-responsive Maintainer Policy: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Policy_for_nonresponsive_package_...
If the request is granted, his packages will be orphaned, and any packager will be able to pick it up, including you.
He last logged into the Fedora Account System on the 18th of August 2020.
Greetings, Lyes Saadi
