the-new-hotness/release-monitoring.org's scratch build of binwalk-3.1.0-1.fc40.src.rpm for rawhide failed http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=125433456
Comment 3 Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2025-06-29 11:35:14 UTC 
binwalk 3 is a rust packge!

It looks doable:
 Problem 1: nothing provides requested (crate(bzip2/default) >= 0.4.4 with crate(bzip2/default) < 0.5.0~)
 Problem 2: nothing provides requested (crate(crc32c/default) >= 0.6.8 with crate(crc32c/default) < 0.7.0~)
 Problem 3: nothing provides requested (crate(entropy/default) >= 0.4.2 with crate(entropy/default) < 0.5.0~)
 Problem 4: nothing provides requested (crate(plotters/default) >= 0.3.6 with crate(plotters/default) < 0.4.0~)
 Problem 5: nothing provides requested (crate(uuid/macro-diagnostics) >= 1.10.0 with crate(uuid/macro-diagnostics) < 2.0.0~)

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

That's just a version delta

>  Problem 2: nothing provides requested (crate(crc32c/default) >= 0.6.8 with
> crate(crc32c/default) < 0.7.0~)
>  Problem 3: nothing provides requested (crate(entropy/default) >= 0.4.2 with

> with crate(plotters/default) < 0.4.0~)

The 3 above are the main deps, the last one has a bunch of other deps

>  Problem 5: nothing provides requested (crate(uuid/macro-diagnostics) >=
> 1.10.0 with crate(uuid/macro-diagnostics) < 2.0.0~)

This one is likely unneeded, the Cargo.toml states "Enable better diagnostics for compile-time UUIDs". I think I now have all the deps packages, reviews/co-maintain etc all welcome.
Comment 7 Peter Robinson 2025-12-07 22:57:26 UTC 
I've put it all in a copr repo here https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/pbrobinson/binwalk3/
Comment 8 Fabio Valentini 2026-01-09 10:56:34 UTC 
Note that binwalk has replaced the "plotters*" dependencies with "plotly" since the last tagged release:
https://github.com/ReFirmLabs/binwalk/commit/09693d3

I'm not sure if it makes sense to package half a dozen "plotters*" crates given that they'll end up unused with the next version, and you'd have to package "plotly" instead - maybe the patch to port to "plotly" can be backported to avoid unnecessary work?
Comment 9 Peter Robinson 2026-03-06 14:59:08 UTC 
It's looking increasingly like upstream is dead, I am considering just retiring this package, or at least dropping any plans to move to the rust variant. There's discussion of forks of upstream, but I am not sure I want to chase ghosts.

If anyone wants to take this over feel free to reach out.
