Description Wolfgang Ulbrich 2022-06-26 09:21:20 UTC
Please branch and build libXpresent in epel8.

I am fedora MATE Desktop Maintainer and i plan to build the whole Mate stack for epel8. LibXpresent is one of the few basic dependencies which i need to build our window manager marco.

If you do not wish to maintain libXpresent in epel8,
or do not think you will be able to do this in a timely manner,
I would be happy to be a co-maintainer of the package (FAS raveit65);
please add me through https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/libXpresent/adduser

Thank you

Ok, sadly redhat ships only  python3-dbus (via @baseos).
But i need dbus-python-devel for buildind another package.
Please rethink your decision.

Opp, sorry, wrong pasting. Forget the last post.

Hi Kevin,
any chance to build libXpresent for epel8 branch please?
You can also add me as co-mantainer and i am happy to maintain libxpresent for epel8.
I need libXpresent-devel to build the Mate WM marco which is a basic Mate package.
In result it doesn't make any sense for me to start building the Mate stack without libXpresent.

Comment 4 Kevin Fenzi 2022-07-02 17:58:56 UTC
Sure, happy to. Can do epel8 and epel9

Branch request for 9: https://pagure.io/releng/fedora-scm-requests/issue/45439

Happy for co-maintainers, but really this hasn't had a release for 7 years, so it likely doesn't need much maintaining. ;)

Comment 5 Wolfgang Ulbrich 2022-07-02 18:41:39 UTC
Thanks.
Add me as co-maintainer, than i can build for epel8 for myself.
A branch and package for epel9 is already there, or not?

Comment 6 Robert Scheck 2022-07-02 19:03:18 UTC
libXpresent for EPEL 9 has an interesting situation: https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/rpms/libXpresent - deprecated in C9S.

Comment 7 Kevin Fenzi 2022-07-02 19:55:06 UTC
Added you. Let me know if you need anything further from me.
