Description Robbie Harwood 2020-10-07 19:05:12 UTC
This bug is part of the non-responsive maintainer procedure for noodles, following https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Policy_for_nonresponsive_package_maintainers/.

Please respond if you are still active in Fedora and want to maintain your EPEL packages.

Comment 1 Nick 2020-10-07 19:58:17 UTC
Happy to keep going, but the other maintainers took over a lot of what I was doing so I haven't looked at it for a few years.

Comment 2 Germano Massullo 2020-10-07 20:26:03 UTC
I can keep going of course

Comment 3 Nick 2020-10-07 20:41:45 UTC
Oh sorry, this is for Ganglia. Yes I'm happy to let this go, I haven't worked on this in 5+ years.

Comment 4 Robbie Harwood 2020-10-08 17:49:53 UTC
Thanks for replying.  The problem is that you're currently responsible for EPEL branches of a few packages; ganglia is most notable because there are unfixed bugs on it, including two CVEs ( https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1790272 and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1790275 ).  If you're not planning to work on it/these, either the EPEL assignee should be change, or the branch should be `fedpkg retire`d ( https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_remove_a_package_at_end_of_life ).

I will give a quick look to it and see if I can manage to fix the build errors. Otherwise I will retire the EPEL 7 branch since I joined maintainership to maintain EPEL 8

Hi Nick, if you no longer can maintain the package, can you remove yourself from packagers list? So there will be only active maintainers.

Cheers

All good, have done this now. I tried on the old system to remove myself but it wouldn't let me. The new system seems to have worked though.
