On Fedora 40, updated daily, I see:
rpm -q pan pan-0.149-4.fc38.x86_64
but pan 0.160 is out. And there is an active list, available via Gmane.

You can often get a clue about the state of a package from https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/<package name>. In this case, https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/pan says "Package is currently unmaintained". If you use it, consider taking over as maintainer.

But it IS maintained! One Dominique Dumont, for whom I have only a Gmane address, has been maintaining it for years.

The Fedora package is currently unmaintained, as you can see for yourself by clicking on the link I provided. If Dominique Dumont maintained the package at some point in the past, that is no longer the case.

Looks like Dominique is supporting Pan, but not supporting the Fedora package. This seems to be the home:

If anyone is interested, I fixed the spec file for pan 0.160 on Fedora 40 and can send it to them. I fixed it for fun. I don't use it myself. BR, Bob
