Do you still use this? It creates ShockWave Flash (SWF) format media files! It wasn't updated since Fedora 14, upstream wasn't updated since 2008.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 28 development cycle. Changing version to '28'.
I plan to start https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Policy_for_nonresponsive_package_maintainers
Consider this an unresponsive maintainer bug from now on. I've e-mailed David at 2018-12-10, no reply. This is a first attempt per point 3 of the nonresponsive package maintainers policy.
Second attempt per point 3 of the nonresponsive package maintainers policy.
Third attempt. Also sending an e-mail to the devel list.

Hi, I'm not sure why you think my working package should be removed...?
I had no idea it still works and is useful. I try to hunt obsolete packages still depending on Python 2, this one was a red flag, it wasn't updated since Fedora 14, upstream wasn't updated since 2008, works with and obsoleted technology. All I wanted was a reply from you: do we keep it or do we retire it. In case you still consider it useful, please try get it ported to Python 3, Python 2 is going away soon.
Do we keep it or do we retire it?
I'm updating to python3, as that seems to be the suggestion.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 28 is nearing its end of life. On 2019-May-28 Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 28. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '28'. 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 28 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.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 31 development cycle. Changing version to '31'.

The package was retired in the meantime.
