Description Timotheus Pokorra 2021-09-24 06:01:30 UTC

I was thinking of taking over the package, to fix the FTBFS for F35, see bug 1987496

But then I did some research, and I found the original upstream in archived Google Code: https://code.google.com/archive/p/google-gdata/

And this page says that all but one of the APIs don't use gdata anymore:
https://developers.google.com/gdata/docs/directory

So in my view, this package gdata-sharp can be retired. It's upstream is dead.



The current clients for Google API are here: 
* https://github.com/googleapis/google-api-php-client
* https://github.com/googleapis/google-api-python-client/
* https://github.com/googleapis/google-api-dotnet-client/

We have in Fedora: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/google-api-python-client

Comment 2 Timotheus Pokorra 2021-12-06 13:50:46 UTC
