Hello. I'm trying to get js-jquery1 to build on F24, and was wondering if
anybody in the Node.js SIG could help me. See forwarded message below with
all the details from devel(a)lists.fedoraproject.org.
Thanks.

fine (including EPEL7, F25, and rawhide), but F24 is broken even before
I apply any updates/changes, and I'm not sure why.
Well the Node.js SIG are probably the people to ask, but I can't see any
builds on koji, so if you want help you're going to have to point us at
the build or give us some more information about the error you are seeing.
I figured I'd ask for help first, before spamming this list with details :)
But, the failure is reproducible with mockbuild. Here's a scratch build
which failed:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=16675312
I can check with the Node.js SIG (I didn't realize such a thing existed).
If you're planning to update from 1.11 to 1.12 then I would have to ask
if that is even appropriate in a released version anyway...
That's a good question. I'm not sure. It really depends on what API changes
upstream is making, and who depends on the js-jquery1 compat package. At
first, I would have said yes, to get the security fix for
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1399547 . However, I now
realize that the patch they had applied to 1.12 for that was never
released, and was instead reverted in all branches before 3.0, which isn't
even packaged (yet) in Fedora. So now, the options are to backport the fix
to the versions in Fedora... or to ignore the issue until we update to 3.0.
Even if we ignore, it doesn't resolve the question about what to do with
the compat packages for jquery1 (and maybe a future compat package for
jquery2).
Whether or not we upgrade or backport a security fix, I can't proceed at
all on the F24 branch right now.
