Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 185883
[MIA] Package not available in repository
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:11:27 EST
Moving to Fedora Core 5 requires to rebuild all arch specific Fedora Extras packages. Accordingly build dates, this does not seem to have happened for this package. Please rebuild the package as soon as possible. When you did this already, ignore and close this bugreport please. For more information see http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/FC5Status.
leafnode has not been built for Fedora Extras 5 and Fedora Extras Development. This leaves FC4 users with a broken upgrade path. Please clarify the package maintainership status.
FYI, I just sent a email to the maintainers address asking about the status of this package and offering to take it over if they no longer wanted to maintain it. I see from a quick google search that they have posted using this address to a mailing list as recently as 6 days ago. I will consider this the start of the AWOL maintainer procedure. (Although perhaps it should be considered earlier)
FYI, I am sending the maintainer another email now as per the AWOL maintainer policy at: http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/Policy/AWOL_Maintainers Does anyone have any alternative email addresses or ways to contact the maintainer?
ok, a post to the extras list and another 2 emails, and no response. I am going to go ahead and take over this package now. Will close this bug once it's built.
ok. I have changed the owners.list and pushed out a new build of this for both fc5 and devel/fc6. Closing this bug now.
