Description Igor Raits 2020-05-03 09:55:28 UTC
Hello,

Your package (rubygem-sup) Fails To Install in Fedora 33:

---
can't install rubygem-sup-0.22.1-6.fc32.noarch:
  - package rubygem-sup-0.22.1-6.fc32.noarch requires (rubygem(rmail-sup) >= 1.0.1 with rubygem(rmail-sup) < 1.1), but none of the providers can be installed
  - nothing provides rubygem(rmail) needed by rubygem-rmail-sup-1.0.1-11.fc32.noarch
---
can't install rubygem-sup-doc-0.22.1-6.fc32.noarch:
  - package rubygem-sup-doc-0.22.1-6.fc32.noarch requires rubygem-sup = 0.22.1-6.fc32, but none of the providers can be installed
  - package rubygem-sup-0.22.1-6.fc32.noarch requires (rubygem(rmail-sup) >= 1.0.1 with rubygem(rmail-sup) < 1.1), but none of the providers can be installed
  - nothing provides rubygem(rmail) needed by rubygem-rmail-sup-1.0.1-11.fc32.noarch
---

According to a policy for FTBFS/FTI bugs (https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Fails_to_build_from_source_Fails_to_install/), your package may be orphaned in 8+ weeks if you won't reply to this bug.

Thanks!

This isn't really a dupe.

The rubygem-rmail-sup package probably should just be retired, because it is not maintained anymore. It was originally a fork of the (unmaintained) rmail gem but rmail has a new maintainer publishing releases. Sup actually works fine against the original rmail 1.0.0 gem we had in Fedora for ages, it doesn't strictly require the rmail-sup fork, and it also works fine against the latest versions of rmail.

However rubygem-rmail was itself also retired a while back due to long-term FTBFS, since the package was never updated to the new upstream: bug 1675950.

I've recently taken over upstream maintainership of sup and would really like to see it continue living in Fedora.

As a first step I will have to file a fresh package review request for rubygem-rmail so that we can get that unretired. And then I will update sup to just require that instead of the older rmail-sup fork.
