Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2018-02-20 15:28:04 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 28 development cycle.
Changing version to '28'.

Comment 2 Ben Cotton 2019-05-02 21:16:24 UTC
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that are no longer maintained.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.

Comment 3 Pravin Satpute 2019-05-03 07:22:07 UTC
Still the same situation, need upgrade to latest upstream.

Comment 4 Ben Cotton 2019-08-13 16:55:32 UTC

Changing version to '31'.

Comment 6 vishalvvr 2020-01-10 11:15:35 UTC
PakType font package previously had individual(paktype-ajrak, paktype-naskh-basic, paktype-naqsh, paktype-tehreer) font releases, 
so paktype-fonts(https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/paktype-fonts) was split into    

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/paktype-tehreer-fonts
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/paktype-ajrak-fonts
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/paktype-naqsh-fonts
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/paktype-naskh-basic-fonts

But now the latest release has single release tar ball  
https://sourceforge.net/projects/paktype/files

Are we planning to sub package paktype-fonts or continue current state?

Comment 7 Nicolas Mailhot 2020-01-10 11:31:43 UTC
If upstream does not want to publish the font files separately anymore yes that will require subpackaging.

But, in that case, I would avise waiting for FPC to be done on
https://pagure.io/packaging-committee/pull-request/934

as that will significantly simplify the font subpackaging mecanisms available in Fedora

(of course FPC is slooooooow; feel free to ping them in pagure)

Comment 8 Pravin Satpute 2020-01-10 12:30:29 UTC
+1 with what nim says.

* Unfortunately upstream has remained unpredictable with release pattern. Good to ask once upstream about their plan from release perspective.  
* If they are going to follow same release pattern in future, good to go as per guidelines, infact this is good refresh for paktype after sometime.

Thanks Vishal for taking this up.

Comment 10 Ben Cotton 2020-11-24 18:25:13 UTC
Fedora 31 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2020-11-24. Fedora 31 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.
