Description of problem: The original authors of Pencil have stopped publishing updates more than 2 years ago. Since then, it was forked, and now has a new maintainer. Development is continuing at: https://github.com/prikhi/pencil They's made a few new releases, which would be nice to have in Fedora. Among other things, they fixed bug #1284549.
Created attachment 1147681 [details] Update to the latest upstream release
Can we get an update in Fedora 23, 24 and Rawhide? I attached a patch you can apply in the Fedora dist-git. After that just run: $ spectool -g pencil.spec to get the sources, then `fedpkg new-sources`, etc...

You know, a small « thank you for reporting the bug and taking the time to provide the patch » goes a long way towards building a decent community where people help each other. Of course, preserving their credit for the work they did (using "git am") is even better, but just the first one would already have made me happy. In any case, your updates aren't marked as fixing bug 1284549, even though I clearly specified that the new upstream release fixed it in the description of this bug report. Can you add that bug to the update? I'll give you karma once that's done.
