Description Konstantin Zaytsev 2019-04-20 16:59:24 UTC
Description of problem:

Zeal not present in Fedora 30 repositories. Could it be added to the repos?

Comment 1 David 2019-05-01 21:03:19 UTC
I second that, please add it!

Comment 2 Martin 2019-05-03 04:58:13 UTC
I built it from the Fedora 29 src.rpm without problems. I third this.

Comment 4 Andrej 2019-05-08 13:08:16 UTC
What is the reason why Zeal is not included in F30?

Comment 5 Dan Horák 2019-05-14 11:33:06 UTC
Because it got dropped (retired) via https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/zeal/c/2b4bce6873dac11585bd10bb41110dd33de5ab1c?branch=master and the revert a while later wasn't accompanied by unblocking in the build system. So it's blocked in F-30+ (see https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=21191).

Comment 6 Stéphane Wirtel 2019-05-15 09:07:50 UTC
And what are the reasons?

I would like to understand because I use it every day. and I have not yet migrated to F30.

Comment 7 Dan Horák 2019-05-15 09:32:19 UTC
This looks as a mistake by the maintainer actually, the commit message says "obsoleted by 0install". The retirement (using "fedpkg retire") automatically blocked the package in the buildsystem.

Use https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Orphaned_package_that_need_new_maintainers#Claiming_Ownership_of_a_Retired_Package for reviving the package.

Comment 8 Lumír Balhar 2019-05-17 07:54:24 UTC
I don't know what happened but I'd also like to see it back in repositories.

Package does not seem to be orphaned because it isn't owned by orphan user [0] there is no mention of zeal on the devel@ mailing list in almost two years [1] and dist git looks as usual [2] but it's not available in rawhide and F30.

Is there anything we can do to get zeal back to repositories?

Comment 9 Dan Horák 2019-05-17 08:10:04 UTC
I would follow the "Claiming Ownership" procedure mentioned in comment #7, I hope the current maintainer won't object. Technically the package is retired.

Comment 10 Lumír Balhar 2019-05-20 11:01:36 UTC
Ok, so I am following the "Claiming Ownership" procedure. The review request is ready in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1711898

Is anybody interested in a review?

In the meantime, there is a COPR repository: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/thindil/zeal/
and scratch builds:
rawhide: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=34949682
F30: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=34949721
F29: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=34949737

Comment 11 Lumír Balhar 2019-05-30 09:04:02 UTC
Review request is approved.
