This is an un-retire, but too old to use the unretire form.

I've forked the original distgit here: https://src.fedoraproject.org/fork/jaymzh/rpms/rubygem-mixlib-shellout/tree/rawhide

Restored the original and then updated for modern versions.

Note this has a new dependency, which I've filed to package here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2437215

Comment 3 Davide Cavalca 2026-02-12 20:53:36 UTC
Package was generated with gem2rpm, simplifying the review.

- package builds and installs without errors on rawhide
- test suite is run and all unit tests pass
- latest version of the gem is packaged
- license matches upstream specification and is acceptable for Fedora
- license file is included with %license in %files
- package complies with the Packaging Guidelines

Package APPROVED.
