Description Hans Ulrich Niedermann 2022-08-22 15:24:29 UTC
Description of problem:

  cowsay-beefymiracle installs its cow file into /usr/share/cowsay/
  but starting from cowsay-3.7.0, cowsay looks for cow files in
  /usr/share/cowsay/cows/.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

  cowsay-beefymiracle-1.0-18 and earlier

How reproducible:

  100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Find a system with F36 or later (cowsay-3.7.0 or later)
2. install cowsay and cowsay-beefymiracle
3. echo moo | cowsay -f beefymiracle

Actual results:

  cowsay: Could not find cowfile for 'beefymiracle'!

Expected results:

Additional info:

  I have prepared a Pull Request fixing this:

  https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/cowsay-beefymiracle/pull-request/1

  As I am one of the maintainers of the cowsay package, I could easily
  fix this myself if I (FAS ndim) had commit access to cowsay-beefymiracle.

Comment 1 Ryan Rix 2022-08-29 06:41:38 UTC
ack; I merged it and I will give you commit access to cowsay-beefymiracle :) would you be willing to take full ownership of the package? it's Important enough to not orphan IMO but I only have one or two fedora VMs these days...

Comment 2 Hans Ulrich Niedermann 2022-08-29 12:42:26 UTC
Thank you!

I can take the full package ownership, and if you were in fact orphaning it I would try to pick it up :-)

And with a non-empty intersection between the maintainer sets of cowsay and cowsay-beefymiracle, coordinating things will be much easier.

Comment 3 Ryan Rix 2022-08-30 01:52:41 UTC
cheers, i've orphaned it. thanks :)

Comment 4 Hans Ulrich Niedermann 2022-08-30 19:04:32 UTC
I have just taken over the package. Thank you very much!
