Description Tim Orling 2020-04-01 16:08:31 UTC
fop was available in CentOS-7:
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/os/x86_64/Packages/fop-1.1-6.el7.noarch.rpm

It is still available Fedora.

This is the one package missing from claiming full support for CentOS-8 for Yocto Project (documentation build depends on fop).

NOTE: I am willing to work on this as a co-maintainer. fas: ttorling

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

Naively cloning f30 branch and performing a local build (on CentOS-8) (fop-2.2):

ant is available as module

error: Failed build dependencies:
  apache-commons, 
  avalon-framework, 
  batik, 
  fontbox, 
  javapackages-local, 
  junit,
  qdox, 
  servlet, 
  xmlgraphics-commons, 
  xmlunit


Similar for f32 branch (fop-2.4).

error: Failed build dependencies:
  apache-commons-io
  apache-commons-logging
  batik
  fontbox
  javapackages-local
  junit
  qdox
  servlet
  xmlgraphics-commons
  xmlunit

This package has changed maintainer in the Fedora.
Reassigning to the new maintainer of this component.

Comment 2 Orion Poplawski 2021-05-05 12:47:37 UTC
Tim - are you still willing to take this on?

Peter or Mikolaj, could you add Tim to fop so he do this?

Comment 3 Mikolaj Izdebski 2021-05-07 09:40:03 UTC
I've added Tim as fop maintainer in EPEL.

Comment 4 Fedora Admin user for bugzilla script actions 2021-05-07 12:22:14 UTC
This package has changed maintainer in Fedora. Reassigning to the new maintainer of this component.

Comment 5 Tim Orling 2023-03-24 00:19:47 UTC
Yocto Project switched to building docs with Sphinx, so fop is no longer needed. I also no longer depend on centos-8. Closing this for now. If someone else wants to pick it up, please reopen and assign yourself.
