Fedora Package Status of Aug 30, 2007

[Christian Iseli]

Hi folks,

I finally found the few hours necessary to get my ducks in a row and
plug the package status report script in the new package database.

It seems to grab the correct info, but please let me know if you notice
funnies...

Cheers,

It sure looks fishy.  The thing is that the CVS repo contains those
directories, and each of those directories contains a devel
subdirectory... exactly like a normal Fedora package.  So it looks like
a normal Fedora package that has no owner.

I have no idea why those directories were created.  I think it might
have been a mistake, but maybe there was a purpose...

The glibc32 and glibc64 look suspicious too...

For tdma I can't find a package review request, so I suppose the CVS
directory should be erased too (it's mostly empty anyway).

Cheers,
					C

glibc32 and glibc64 are used by the buildsystem to allow building, eg,
32bit things on x86_64 and ppc64 things on ppc such as gcc.  Originally
done because the previous build-system only supported installing
"native" arch packages, there's been a little talk of trying to get to
where we install just the multilib glibc with mock/koji and letting that
dtrt for the future

"no owners entry" means only the pkgdb admins can do something
about it. But ufsparse is active in cvs for example.

Fun, that's people not following the EndOfLife procedure correctly.
I'll scrub them, hope nothing falls out from it.

Is libedit really EOLed/unowned? From the last changelog entry it seems
Thomas Fitzsimmons took it. Thomas?

Yes, I requested libedit to be unorphaned since it satisfies jython's 
readline requirement without invoking the GPL.  This is important when 
using jython from Eclipse plugins.

CVS, Bugzilla, and PkgDB inconsistencies (was: Fedora Package Status of Aug 30, 2007)

This one depends on how you parse the tree. :)  audacious-docklet is
the name of the package and spec file, but the name of the cvs module,
bugzilla component, and pkgdb entry is audacious-plugins-docklet.
Ideally things would be renamed to match.  The review is here:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/218258

It seems that it was supposed to be renamed but it hasn't been done
completely.  The module was renamed, but the spec file and name of the
package wasn't.  Interestingly, there's a request in the review bug
from upstream asking NOT to distribute this package:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/218258#c20

So shouldn't this package be EOL'd?

> > s390utils 
There's no CVS module.  There's an empty merge review:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/226385

Is this in any supported Fedora arches?  I thought it was only for
s390 and s390x arches?

> > stardict-dic 
This package was split into several subpackages:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/231267

It was removed from cvs, but not from bugzilla.  It seems that it
should be.

> > sturmbahnfahrer 
This was renamed to stormbaancoureur:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/199310#c15

The files in the sturmbahnfahrer CVS module should be removed and a
dead.package added.  It should also be removed from the bugzilla
components list for any releases where it was never built.

ufsparse was renamed to suitesparse:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/246231

Same story as sturmbahnfahrer: files should be removed, dead.package
added, bugzilla component dropped (again, for any releases for which
it was never built).

While we're on the subject, I ran across a few things while tracking
license tag changes that seem to need similar clean up.

The following modules have a dead.package file, along with other
files:

digikamimageplugins
digikamimageplugins-doc
kdeartwork-extras
kile-i18n
kimdaba
ks3switch
python-astng
superkaramba

The files other than the dead.package file should be removed from CVS
I think.

Then there's the ws-common-utils module.  The package name and spec
file are named ws-commons-util, which also exists as a module in CVS,
both names are in bugzilla.  The review request shows some confusion
by using both names at various places:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/232728

One or the other should be removed from CVS and bugzilla.  I'd say it
is ws-common-utils, since the actual package name is ws-commons-util.

Finally, what's up with the glibc{32,64} modules?  Were they ever
used?  Are they needed in CVS still or can they be dropped?  (They're
not in bugzilla or the pkgdb, nor in the repos.)

Sheesh, that's about enough bugzilla for me tonight. ;)

Actually sturmbahnfahrer is my fault, it got renamed to stormbaancoureur, but I 
didn't aak for removal of the packages with the old name from the repo.

I've now send a mail for this to el-eng.
