If you know about this problem and are planning on fixing it, please acknowledge so by setting the bug status to ASSIGNED. If you don't have time to maintain this package, consider orphaning it, so maintainers of dependent packages realize the problem.


If you don't react accordingly to the policy for FTBFS/FTI bugs (https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Fails_to_build_from_source_Fails_to_install/), your package may be orphaned in 8+ weeks.


P.S. The data was generated solely from koji buildroot, so it might be newer than the latest compose or the content on mirrors. To reproduce, use the koji/local repo only, e.g. in mock:

    $ mock -r fedora-42-x86_64 --config-opts mirrored=False install rust-icu_locid_transform+datagen-devel rust-icu_locid_transform+serde-devel rust-icu_locid_transform-devel


P.P.S. If this bug has been reported in the middle of upgrading multiple dependent packages, please consider using side tags: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Updates_Policy/#updating-inter-dependent-packages

Thanks!
Comment 1 Ben Beasley 2025-07-28 09:58:23 UTC 
This is unfortunate but intentional. This crate was refactored out of the ICU4X stack between 1.5 and 2.0, and nothing outside of ICU4X depends on it directly. Keeping it installable would have required creating and maintaining 10-20 compat packages, and since nothing uses this package anymore, this would have been wasted effort. We therefore made a reluctant, conscious decision that breaking installability for a handful of now-leaf Rust libraries formerly in the ICU4X stack was better than either maintaining many useless compat packages or withholding the useful ICU4X 2.0 update from stable branches.

I’m setting this to ASSIGNED rather than CLOSED/WONTFIX to keep it from being automatically reopened (see duplicate bug 2383744).
Comment 2 Fedora Release Engineering 2026-05-06 13:39:27 UTC 
This message is a reminder that Fedora Linux 42 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora Linux 42 on 2026-05-13.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
'version' of '42'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora Linux version. Note that the version field may be hidden.
Click the "Show advanced fields" button if you do not see it.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora Linux 42 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora Linux, you are encouraged to change the 'version' to a later version
prior to this bug being closed.
