Description Miro Hrončok 2025-03-04 17:41:17 UTC

Hello.

nova-agent BuildRequires python3-nose.

python-nose will be retired from Fedora 43. Please drop this requirement or retire nova-agent as well.

python3-nose was deprecated  in Fedora for 5 years.

Let me know if you need assistance. Thanks.

As per point 3 of https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Fails_to_build_from_source_Fails_to_install/#_package_removal_for_long_standing_ftbfs_and_fti_bugs I am asking the maintainer(s) to respond.

Comment 2 Sam P 2025-03-19 13:29:08 UTC

Apologies for the delay Miro. I am not able to update this package as as far as I know the project is no longer being updated nor do I have contact with the upstream maintainers. This package will need to be retired, I am happy to follow any needed steps to achieve this goal. Apologies for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience.

Comment 3 Miro Hrončok 2025-03-19 13:37:57 UTC

Do you mind if I orphan the package on your behalf?

Comment 4 Sam P 2025-03-19 13:39:52 UTC

I do not mind at all, thank you Miro.

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

Automation has figured out the package is retired in Fedora Rawhide.
