Description Thomas Sailer 2013-11-23 18:25:35 UTC
Description of problem:
isdn4k-utils 3.2 is hopelessly outdated. isdn4linux.de hasn't seen any serious development since years. The development seems to happen now at the git tree at misdn.org.

mISDNuser requires a newer version of the capi20 library.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
isdn4k-utils-3.2-90.fc19

How reproducible:
always

My port of the package to the misdn.org tree can be found here:

Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2015-01-09 20:40:43 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained. 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.

There is a similar bug report for Mageia where Hartmut Goebel added some more information how Debian handles the situation: https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14276

This message is a reminder that Fedora 21 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 21. 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bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 Fedora  'version'
of '21'.

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'

This is still a problem in rawhide. Btw: I'm interested in getting Thomas' changes into Fedora. If it would help I could give the package a spin.

Comment 5 Felix Schwarz 2015-11-04 12:01:29 UTC
sorry for the spam, wanted to set the version to "rawhide".

Comment 6 Than Ngo 2015-11-11 12:52:52 UTC
thanks, i will take a look at this and work on a update.

Comment 7 Than Ngo 2016-02-18 17:22:44 UTC
it's fixed in rawhide

Comment 8 Felix Schwarz 2016-02-18 20:03:10 UTC
(In reply to Ngo Than from comment #7)
> it's fixed in rawhide

Thanks a lot. Really appreciated (as I can now send fax messages even with an all-ip connection).
