autoconf-archive for EPEL 6 and 5 was orphaned and retired in late 2014: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/autoconf-archive.git/commit/?h=el6 If you want it for older EPEL than 7, you will need to find a maintainer for those branches, or become one yourself.

Hi Is there any equivalent of autoconf-archive in Redhat7? I got missing to find some MACROS which autoconf-archive contains. oh, may I ask why it's orphaned? Thanks! (In reply to Fan Du from comment #3) > oh, may I ask why it's orphaned? > Thanks! I believe nobody volunteered in EPEL to continue with packaging. I believe actual maintainers would be OK if you offered a help here with packaging? Seeing that EL6 is in production 3 phase (only critical security patches), I have mixed thoughts about reintroducing a package. That being said, the current Fedora SRPM does successfully build on EL6. Given the low update cycle, it might only be updated a few times before EL6 goes EOL. This message is a reminder that EPEL 6 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for EPEL 6 on 2020-11-30. It is our policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a 'version' of 'el6'. 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 EPEL version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before EPEL 6 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.

EPEL el6 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2020-11-30. EPEL el6 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of EPEL please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
