The libcacard package needs to be obsoleted in favor of the subpackage of qemu, this has already been pointed out to me but I'm slow on the draw. Two observations: 1) I see you've reverted the following already, but I'd like to point out that it would have been wrong for a different reason: > +Provides: libcacard = 1.2.2-5 > +Obsoletes: libcacard < 1.2.2-5 If at all (for an ordinary package rename), it should have been "Provides: libcacard = %{version}-%{release}", because it would not have made any sense for libcacard-1.3.0-6%{?dist} (with Epoch 1 even!) to provide also libcacard-1.2.2-5. 2) About removing the old libcacard from the distribution and from package git: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_remove_a_package_at_end_of_life *ping* (In reply to comment #3) > *ping* I'm afraid Alon has dropped the ball on this. I'll go and walk libcacard through the retirement procedure right away. (In reply to comment #4) > (In reply to comment #3) > > *ping* > > I'm afraid Alon has dropped the ball on this. Correction, it looks like Alon has done most of the retirement procedure, but he has missed a few steps: 1. Obsoletes / Provides -> done by qemu subpackage 2. Mark as dead.package -> Alon did this for the f18 branch only, I've just done it for master 3. git rm in other branches -> NA 4. remove from comps -> NA 5. remove from spins -> NA 6. Mark as retired in pkgdb, done for f18 only, I don't have rights to do this for devel :| 7. Remove from upstream-release-monitoring -> NA 8. Block from koji collections, done, see: https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5465 So all that needs to be done now is hit "retire" in pkgdb for the devel branch. Alon can you please go here: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/name/libcacard Hit the retire button for the devel branch, and then close this bug ? Retired the devel branch. Closing as next release. |
