Description Betty Liu 2022-10-16 19:18:45 UTC
Hi, this is required by deja-dup building in EPEL8. See the following bug
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2017357#c1

Could you please build it for EPEL8?

libhandy1 (https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/libhandy1) is retired. I don't know how the process works to build it for EPEL8 when the package is retired, sorry.

OK, I see. Thank you so much for your reply!

I asked the deja-dup maintainer, please build libhandy in epel8 please~ Should I open a new bug or continue with this?

Looks like libhandy is no go for epel8 because even a super old libhandy 1.0.3 (the latest version is 1.8.0) requires gtk3 3.24.1, but epel8 only has 3.22.x. Sorry!

As for deja-dup, I'd suggest building an older version of deja-dup for epel8 that doesn't require libhandy.
