Ping? Any news here?
It would be great to have a current version in EPEL.

Comment 2 Raphael Groner 2018-04-06 20:54:31 UTC

Another friendly reminder.

Comment 3 Peter Oliver 2018-09-30 20:24:47 UTC

It appears that primary contact Michael Rice isn't active in Fedora, hasn't made any commits since the package was originally released, and so presumably isn't interested in its ongoing maintenance.

Re-adding needinfo, which was cleared by accident.

Raised FESCo issue https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/1998.

Comment 8 Raphael Groner 2018-10-21 18:46:24 UTC

Current version of upstream is v6.7.0.2018.9

python2 subpackage was dropped in rawhide, do we still need it in epel7?

Comment 9 Raphael Groner 2018-10-31 22:21:50 UTC

There's some issue with dependencies:

Currently, python36 is not possible in EPEL7 due to missing dependency.
