Description Tadej Janež 2020-09-17 08:57:10 UTC
Hi Veeti Paananen,

as you are both manuale upstream maintainer and manuale Fedora package maintainer, I think I don't need to explain this at length.

Manuale upstream has been deprecated and archived since Oct 10, 2019:
https://github.com/veeti/manuale/commit/7693a4928260c7aa22adf189ea50846a47ae2f65

As is mentioned in the deprecation notice:
"This project is deprecated. The ACMEv1 API will be shut down soon."

The following dates are given in Let's Encrypt's End of Life Plan for ACMEv1:

- In June of 2020 we will stop allowing new domains to validate via ACMEv1.

- Starting at the beginning of 2021 we will occasionally disable ACMEv1 issuance and renewal for periods of 24 hours, no more than once per month (OCSP service will not be affected). The intention is to induce client errors that might encourage subscribers to update to clients or configurations that use ACMEv2. Renewal failures should be limited since new domain validations will already be disabled and we recommend renewing certificates 30 days before they expire.

- In June of 2021 we will entirely disable ACMEv1 as a viable way to get a Let’s Encrypt certificate.

(source: https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/end-of-life-plan-for-acmev1/88430)

Given that Fedora 33 will be released in Oct/Nov 2020 and supported for ~13 months, it would we wise to retire and remove manuale from it to avoid user confusion and bug reports.

Hi,


Agreed. I don't have the fedpkg tools on my computer right now, can I do this online or can you do it for me? Thanks.

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

Comment 4 Tadej Janež 2021-05-26 18:05:47 UTC
This was done before the release of F33.
