Description Maxwell G 2023-06-07 20:52:32 UTC
This bug is part of the non-responsive maintainer procedure for cheimes, following https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Policy_for_nonresponsive_package_maintainers/.

Please respond if you are still active in Fedora and want to maintain python-setuptools-rust.

Comment 1 Christian Heimes 2023-06-08 09:30:56 UTC
I'm maintaining python-setuptools-rust as build dependency for python-cryptography. In general I'm conservative with updates and only update python-setuptools-rust to a newer version, if the need arises.

If you need newer versions of python-setuptools-rust for other Fedora packages, then I'm happy to invite you as a co-maintainer. Please keep in mind that python-cryptography stability has priority. It's in the critical path for a lot of components including FreeIPA.

Comment 2 Miro Hrončok 2023-06-08 09:58:58 UTC
Christian, please add @python-packagers-sig as a co-maintainer. We generally perform impact checks to see if upgrades break anything and you don't need to worry about us updating setuptools-rust to a version that breaks cryptography.

I can even add a CI test that builds cryptography if you are really concerned.

Comment 3 Christian Heimes 2023-06-08 10:24:28 UTC
@python-packagers-sig now has commit privileges.

I would appreciate a CI test. In the past upstream PyCA cryptography had limited the upper version of python-setuptools-rust because they targeted older Python versions (3.6) or more recent setuptools-rust versions were breaking things.

Thanks for the test case! I have merged your PR.
