Description David Kaspar // Dee'Kej 2018-06-18 13:25:33 UTC

Hello!

Description of problem:
It appears your package depend on 'initscrits' package for some reason. However, most of the initscripts' dependants are no longer valid.

I hereby request you check your package/specfile, and either:
 * drop the initscripts dependancy and close this BZ, or
 * provide a justification in a comment for keeping the dependancy (without closing this BZ)

----------------------

NOTE: In case you are depending on initscripts because of networking scripts, then you will need to update your specfile to depend directly on new package 'network-scripts' (instead of 'initscripts').

If this is the case, please let us know in the comments and do not close the BZ  yet.

Additional info:
The requested change here is valid for Rawhide (F29) only. Do not backport these changes into F28 or F27, because it would break things.

Thank you for your co-operation! :)

Comment 1 Jan Kurik 2018-08-14 10:54:27 UTC

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 29 development cycle.
Changing version to '29'.

Comment 2 Ben Cotton 2019-10-31 20:46:17 UTC

This message is a reminder that Fedora 29 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 29 on 2019-11-26.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained.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
Fedora 'version' of '29'.

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 29 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.

Comment 3 Xavier Bachelot 2019-11-25 13:08:09 UTC

Still the same in rawhide.

Afaict, the initscript justs serve has an example.
Also, there's probably no need for spawn-fcgi on a systemd based distro anyway.

Comment 4 Ben Cotton 2020-02-11 15:43:09 UTC

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 32 development cycle.
Changing version to 32.

Comment 5 Juan Orti 2020-11-07 10:50:58 UTC

From the packaging guidelines:

    SystemV-style initscripts are forbidden in Fedora. Systemd units must be used instead.

https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#_initscripts

Please, remove the init scripts and use a systemd service unit.

Comment 6 Ben Cotton 2021-02-09 16:14:54 UTC

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 34 development cycle.
Changing version to 34.

Comment 7 Ben Cotton 2022-05-12 16:34:51 UTC

This message is a reminder that Fedora Linux 34 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora Linux 34 on 2022-06-07.
It is Fedora's 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 '34'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora Linux version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora Linux 34 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 Linux, you are encouraged to change the 'version' to a later version
prior to this bug being closed.

Comment 8 Ben Cotton 2022-06-08 00:54:57 UTC

Fedora Linux 34 entered end-of-life (EOL) status on 2022-06-07.

Fedora Linux 34 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
Fedora 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.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
