Great! Good to know, and thanks for your help :)
The packages for the KVM related stuff are maintained by Red Hat employees.
You will probably need to reach out to them directly, I don't think
any of them are subscribed to this list.
The package for the timerfd crate has been removed ("retired") from
Fedora 38 and rawhide because no packages used it for over a year.
It would need to be un-retired. Since I retired it only four weeks
ago, that would not require a package re-review yet.
I was the previous maintainer, so if you need a timerfd package, I can
submit the paperwork to add back the package.
On a different note, I don't know if Firecracker in Fedora will
meet
the requirements of the project I am working on long term--we'll
likely end up on podman+krun. I will still be working on it for the
near future, but I'd like to avoid adding ~15 new packages and having
to orphan them in a few months because I no longer use them. If I
submit review requests, would anyone (or the SIG itself) co-maintain
the crates and/or Firecracker in case I am no longer able to use them
later? Should I ask on the devel list instead? Otherwise I think I
should probably just maintain the builds in Copr.
If people think that having Firecracker packages available in Fedora
is worthwhile, then sure, the Rust SIG (so at this point, mostly me)
will keep library dependencies and Firecracker itself in working
order.
