Description of problem: There are no Scala packages for F19 or later versions, either because of FTBFS issues or broken dependencies. There are several issues preventing a straightforward build, including the absence of several test-suite dependencies and interface incompatibilities between current Scala releases (2.10.x) and contemporary JLine releases (v2.6+). I have done some work to address these issues and get Scala building again (please see the v2.10.2-1 tag of https://github.com/willb/scala-packaging ). It would be excellent if one of the existing Scala maintainers could incorporate these fixes and resume regular updates.

Due the information provided in this bug report, I was able to create an update to scala-2.10.3 for Rawhide, F20 and F10. As a co-maintainer of this package I have submitted updates for F19 and F20 to bodhi.
This is my second attempt to contact Geoff about this package.
I would like to ask about the state of the non-responsive maintainer process, which was initiate by this bug. I may be nice, if we have an ordinary primary maintainer for the scala package. At last thsi is a pring to geoff to send us any sinn of response.

This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19.

Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 19 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, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
