ga (global arrays) package maintainer needed

[Marcin Dulak]

Hi,

I have a problem with an unmaintained https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ga, a dependency
for https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/nwchem.
Recently nwchem unbundled ga from its sources
https://github.com/nwchemgit/nwchem/issues/28, but that requires a recent ga version,
built
in a way that makes `${EXTERNAL_GA_PATH}/bin/ga-config` available.
ga seems unmaintaned https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1432661, and therefore
I'm looking for someone who can take it over.

I believe I'm not allowed to bundle ga in nwchem
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Bundling_and_Duplicat...,
and in this case if ga (in Fedora and EPEL) does not follow closely the nwchem development
cycle I'll need to retire nwchem.
ga seems to be used only as nwchem dependency on Fedora/EPEL as seen from `repoquery
--whatrequires ga-openmpi`

If it genuinely is unmaintained (and this thread doesn’t wake up the
current maintainer - you might want to try a direct email) then you
might be the best person to help maintain it since you’re maintaining
something (the only thing?) that uses it

What is the current policy about bundling in Fedora?

It turns out that the global arrays package, apart from being outdated, and no response
from the maintainer has been compiled with incompatible options
to the ones required by nwchem: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1514542

If I don't receive any response I'll start bundling ga (in the sense of using the
required ga version during the nwchem build).

Hello Team,

Can you please remove my Email from the Distribution list ?
I've been requesting the same from long time and no action has been taken.
