Expected results:
The liblsl rpm is installed

Additional info:
boost libraries were updated to 1.69, but the liblsl package was not, yet it still requires the old boost libraries resulting in a broken dependency.

Comment 1 Ankur Sinha (FranciscoD) 2019-12-03 16:52:49 UTC

This package does not currently have a maintainer, it is an orphan. So, no fixes are being made here. I do not know if it fits the NeuroFedora tool set, but I'll ask around and see if we need to take it over.

If you use it, would you like to help maintain it perhaps Theodore? We can help you learn the required skills/processes and sponsor you as a packager too.


Dmitry (original co-maintainer), are you still active?

Comment 2 Dmitry Mikhirev 2019-12-10 18:06:03 UTC

It simply needs rebuilding against new boost. Next mass rebuild will fix it.

Comment 3 Ankur Sinha (FranciscoD) 2019-12-11 18:12:18 UTC

The mass rebuild will only fix it for rawhide/F32, not for F30/F31. Can you please build and push an update to these stable Fedora releases too?

Comment 4 Ankur Sinha (FranciscoD) 2019-12-15 20:07:23 UTC

Can you also please take over the package if you are maintaining it? It is currently orphaned.

Comment 5 Ben Cotton 2020-04-30 20:37:52 UTC

This message is a reminder that Fedora 30 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 30 on 2020-05-26.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained.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 '30'.

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 30 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 6 Ben Cotton 2020-05-26 18:02:18 UTC

Fedora 30 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2020-05-26. Fedora 30 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no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further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. 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.
