Npgsql mono >= 4

Mono no longer distributes the Npgsql driver. Developers that need it will be better served by using the actively maintained Npgsql driver from this site:

Comment 1 Timotheus Pokorra 2015-08-08 12:03:11 UTC
a couple of issues:

* MUST: Package must own all directories that it creates. No known owner of /usr/lib/mono/npgsql
* SHOULD: Latest version is packaged: there is a newer version 2.2.5 release at https://github.com/npgsql/npgsql/releases

rpmlint shows this:

I don't know where this error about missing /usr/bin/python comes from? I am running fedora-review on rawhide.

Comment 4 Package Review 2020-07-10 00:51:49 UTC
This is an automatic check from review-stats script.

This review request ticket hasn't been updated for some time. We're sorry
it is taking so long. If you're still interested in packaging this software
into Fedora repositories, please respond to this comment clearing the
NEEDINFO flag.

You may want to update the specfile and the src.rpm to the latest version
available and to propose a review swap on Fedora devel mailing list to increase
chances to have your package reviewed. If this is your first package and you
need a sponsor, you may want to post some informal reviews. Read more at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_get_sponsored_into_the_packager_group.

Without any reply, this request will shortly be considered abandoned
and will be closed.
Thank you for your patience.

Comment 5 Package Review 2020-08-10 00:51:34 UTC

The ticket submitter failed to clear the NEEDINFO flag in a month.
As per https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Policy_for_stalled_package_reviews
we consider this ticket as DEADREVIEW and proceed to close it.
