Three monthes no reply on this. :( If nobody cares, I'll take of it during next week. I have dropped a offline mail to Steve. He was shifting his job/place recently so might not have time to attend to this. Hello, I'm sorry about the non-responsiveness. Yeah, for a while now, I haven't been able to do justice to any of the packages for which I am a maintainer. I've orphaned this package in the packagedb. If besser82 wants to take it, he should go ahead else I'll announce the orphaning on fedora-devel (I'm assuming that this is the correct way to orphan a package - I did a quick search for on the wiki and the closest thing I could find was the Notes for Maintainers section at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Policy_for_nonresponsive_package_maintainers ) cheers, - steve This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component. Hi Steve! (In reply to steve from comment #3) > I'm sorry about the non-responsiveness.

If besser82 wants to take it, Just taken master, F20, F19 and el6. F18 and el5 branch is still owned by for some reason. If you want to orphan them, too, I'd be glad to take them.

I use wordnet frequently so hope you do a better job than I did ;-) cheers, - steve This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Created attachment 987593 [details] suggested patch This is just a drive-by fix. What do you think? Builds in Koji (http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=8809440) This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 22 development cycle.

Description of problem: The arched wordnet-3.0-19.$arch rpm ships ~ 40 MBytes of noarch data located inside %{_datadir}/%{name}%{version}. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): wordnet-3.0-19.fc* How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. rpmls wordnet 2. there you go. ;) Actual results: rpmls reveals ~ 40 MBytes of noarch data inside the arched package. Expected results: This data should live inside some wordnet-data.noarch pkg. Proposed Solution: Create a noarch subpkg for the data and add Requires: wordnet-data = %{version}-%{release} to wordnet.$arch pkg. ;) Don't forget to add %doc LICENSE or such to data-subpkg, so it shouldn't require arched main-pkg, because there are some other apps or libs around which use this data, but don't need the wordnet-libs.
