Description Erik J 2017-03-06 16:34:26 UTC

Description of problem:
The main cinnamon package is missing from EPEL: cinnamon-2.8.8-2.el7.x86_64.rpm.

This package is currently in the MIT mirror (http://mirrors.mit.edu/epel/7/x86_64/c/) but not in the main epel repo (https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/7/x86_64/c/).

Cinnamon will not install correctly or run without this package.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
cinnamon-2.8.8-2.el7.x86_64.rpm

How reproducible:
Download cinnamon* from epel. Logout or reboot. Cinnamon does not appear in the DM as an option. I have tested with both GDM and lightDM. It is not a display manager issue.


Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual results:
Cinnamon does not appear as a desktop option in the display manager.

Expected results:
Cinnamon appears as an option in the DM.

I believe this is also related to the absence of the zukitwo gtk2, gtk3 and metacity themes for which cinnamon is dependent upon.

It seems like someone or some automated system has retired cinnamon due to the absence of the zukitwo.

I have applied for un-retirement, if they force a re-review I will retire the whole stack for epel7 due to limited time.
