 Hi

I recently requested el6 and epel7 branches for these five packages, with
 the intention of getting FindBugs into EPEL. In hindsight I was far too
 optimistic about being able to do that...

jsr-305 is built with Maven, and Maven isn't in EPEL 6.

findbugs depends on several Java libraries that aren't currently packaged
 for EPEL.

To get FindBugs into EPEL will require several new packages to be added
 first, and I don't have time to take that on.

Is it possible to undo the branch creation for these packages? I haven't
 done any builds of them yet.

Sorry for wasting your time :-(

Comment:

sorry we do not remove branches. you should run "fedpkg retire" in each of
 the branches.

Comment (by richardfearn):

Thanks Dennis. I've retired the packages for el6.

I'm going to keep the epel7 branches for now. It might be possible to
 package FindBugs after all...
