This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 24 development cycle. Changing version to '24'. More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Program_Management/HouseKeeping/Fedora24#Rawhide_Rebase spawn-fcgi was only orphaned for a short time. I am the active maintainer and it will continue to be available. |
lighttpd-fastcgi package run-requires spawn-fcgi. spawn-fcgi is orphaned now and it will be removed from distribution if nobody will adopt it. Is the dependency needed? lighttpd.spec says: %package fastcgi Summary: FastCGI module and spawning helper for lighttpd and PHP configuration Group: System Environment/Daemons Requires: %{name} = %{version}-%{release} # Not really a requirement, but it used to be included (until 1.4.20-5) Requires: spawn-fcgi And grepping the lighttpd-fastcgi does reveal any spawn-fcgi invocation. There only few documentation files mentioning it. I feel spawn-fcgi package itself is not needed if you have systemd <http://redmine.lighttpd.net/projects/spawn-fcgi/wiki/Systemd>. Indeed the package in Fedora delivers System V init scripts only. I propose to remove spawn-fcgi dependency from the lighttpd-fastcgi package. (Notice: I have no experience with FastCGI, so possibly I'm not right. I noticed this issue because many Perl packages depends on lighttpd.)
