Description of problem: No updates and activity for years https://src.fedoraproject.org/user/gilboa Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.3.8 There is my COPR with latest version and patches: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/atim/icewm/ If there is no maintainer i wish to take this orphaned package if this possible.
Hello, I'm the current maintainer of icewm. Due to severe time constraints I was pretty much AFK for a long period of time. If you're willing to take over icewm, I'll be happy to give you the main chair and stay as co-maintainer. - Gilboa
@Gilboa Davara, great to hear! Welcome back. IceWM still could be pretty much usable and somewhat ready out of box. Also upstream not dead. I building it in COPR and would like if this go to main Fedora repos. I still improving it and there is a room for improvements. Also in COPR i did some tweaks which could be not acceptable for main Fedora repos, so probably better not include them, like font rendering tweaks. I will appreciate and happy of any of your help with this package. TY.
Short update: I started working on latest IceWM release. Hopefully it'll be pushed in the near future. - Gilboa
I already send a PR on src.fedoraproject.org. Its already built and works. Please add me as co-maintainer for icewm and springlobby package. I will maintain it for Fedora and EPEL releases.
Can you send a package admin request? I'll add you. (As far as I remember I cannot do it with you asking for co-maintainer access) - Gilboa
(In reply to Gilboa Davara from comment #5) > Can you send a package admin request? I'll add you. > (As far as I remember I cannot do it with you asking for co-maintainer > access) If i remember correctly you should add me there https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/icewm/settings#usersgroups-tab I'll build new icewm only for Rawhide and F31 because your current icewm works fine and there a lot changes which should not pushed to current Fedora release according to update policy. But now there much more reason why **we should** update icewm in Rawhide because it FTBFS. So i build new one for Rawhide and will continue improve and will try simplify .spec file more. And when you will have more free time we can improve it together. :)
What's your FAS user?
FAS name: atim
Done. Please verify. - Gilboa
Can commit now. Thank you @Gilboa. Already built 1.6.1 version in COPR but will wait a little bit until this bug investigate and then then I'll push new commits https://github.com/bbidulock/icewm/issues/374
Can't commit, can't push: remote: Branch refs/heads/master is unsupported remote: Denied push for ref 'refs/heads/master' for user 'atim' remote: All changes have been rejected
Weird. No idea why. I'll try to push it myself tomorrow. - Gilboa
Stupid question: Which release should we pull? 1.6.1, 1.5.5 or 1.4.2 (which is the last official release)? - Gilboa
I closed my old PR and already built for F31 and Rawhide and pushed latest 1.6.1 version with some upstream patches. IMO we shouldn't push this new build in current F29 and F30.
... We nearly ready to push 1.6.1 myself :) I agree about keeping 1.6.1 rawhide only for now. - Gilboa
Did you like this new build or meh? :) It's still WIP and need to polish out of box experience and icon set. But i trying to do this with upstream (icewm and theme authors).
Did you issue a koji build? - Gilboa
Created attachment 1615360 [details] screenshoot (In reply to Gilboa Davara from comment #17) > Did you issue a koji build? > > - Gilboa Yes, it now built and works fine for F31 and Rawhide.
