Comment 1 Tom "spot" Callaway 2019-09-24 16:42:52 UTC
I've added this API permission. You should no longer see this error. Please reopen if you do.

Comment 2 Paramjit Oberoi 2019-09-25 16:07:33 UTC
I just tried again, and got the same error.

Comment 3 Paramjit Oberoi 2019-11-04 04:52:09 UTC
Still happening on F31.

This is the second time this package has broken for an extended period of time. Should I switch to an alternative? Any suggestions for something that would work well when connecting from a chromebook to a Fedora desktop?

This package has changed maintainer in the Fedora.
Reassigning to the new maintainer of this component.

Comment 5 Ben Cotton 2020-11-03 16:53:07 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 31 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 31 on 2020-11-24.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained.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 '31'.

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 31 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 6 Ben Cotton 2020-11-24 20:13:11 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no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further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.
