Description Thomas Moschny 2013-06-13 18:52:40 UTC
As pexpect has been obsoleted by python-pexpect starting with F18, the pexpect package should be retired, as described here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_remove_a_package_at_end_of_life .

Comment 1 Michael Schwendt 2013-08-20 10:05:28 UTC
I've marked it dead in git master, because it has been rebuilt twice meanwhile, for F19 and F20. That makes it harder to keep the Obsoletes accurate.
