Description Vít Ondruch 2014-06-26 11:47:25 UTC
rubyforge.org was shut down, hence this package has lost its purpose. The only package which depends on this one is rubygem-echoe. I already asked upstream to drop the rubyforge support [1].

There is also rubygem-ci_reporter, which has BR on rubygem-rubyforge, but that is maintainer commission, since upstream already dropped the rubyforge support in 1.9.2 [2].

Comment 1 Jaroslav Reznik 2015-03-03 16:04:12 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 22 development cycle.
Changing version to '22'.

More information and reason for this action is here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Program_Management/HouseKeeping/Fedora22

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2016-07-19 11:50:35 UTC
Fedora 22 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-07-19. Fedora 22 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.

This was not done yet and should be done IMO.

Comment 4 Jan Kurik 2016-07-26 04:49:29 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 25 development cycle.
Changing version to '25'.

Ping?

Comment 6 Fedora End Of Life 2018-05-03 08:54:07 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 26 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 26. 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bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '26'.

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 26 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.

I still think this is useless.

Comment 8 Jan Kurik 2018-08-14 10:24:19 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 29 development cycle.
Changing version to '29'.

Comment 9 Ben Cotton 2019-10-31 20:51:13 UTC

It would be nice to remove this unneeded package.

Comment 11 Mamoru TASAKA 2019-11-05 04:31:00 UTC
I now did "fedpkg retire" on master, let's see how it goes.

Looking at yesterday compose report [1], it was not removed yet. Not sure if the retirement was correctly processed, because there were problems [2]. But may be I am just impatient and it will be all right in next compose :)
