Description Davide Cavalca 2022-08-24 17:03:54 UTC
Please branch and build ppl in epel8 and epel9.

If you do not wish to maintain ppl in epel8 and epel9,
or do not think you will be able to do this in a timely manner,
the EPEL Packagers SIG would be happy to be a co-maintainer of the package;
please add the epel-packagers-sig group through
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ppl/addgroup
and grant it commit access, or collaborator access on epel* branches.

Comment 1 Jerry James 2022-08-24 17:57:03 UTC
I don't think either ppl maintainer is active in Fedora anymore.  I have used my provenpackager abilities in the past to maintain this package due to lack of responsiveness of the maintainers of record.

Comment 2 Davide Cavalca 2022-08-24 18:01:38 UTC
We can use the stalled EPEL package policy to unblock this ticket if needed: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/epel/epel-policy/#stalled_epel_requests

That said, if you know that the maintainer is inactive, you may wanna start the non-responsive maintainer process: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Policy_for_nonresponsive_package_maintainers/

Comment 3 Davide Cavalca 2022-08-31 20:38:26 UTC
Will you be able to branch and build ppl in epel8 and epel9?
The EPEL Packagers SIG would be happy to be a co-maintainer
if you do not wish to build it on epel8 and epel9.

Comment 4 Roberto Bagnara 2022-09-01 07:19:50 UTC
Sorry, I noticed now that I am the assignee of this ticket.
I must say that I do not understand what is asked here,
but what I can say is that you can count on cooperation upstream.
Just write to ppl-devel.it a description of what is required.

Comment 5 Davide Cavalca 2022-09-01 16:44:12 UTC
Thanks Roberto, I don't thing upstream needs to do anything specific here, ppl builds out of the box on EPEL from what I can see. What we do need is for you (as maintainer of this package) to either branch and build it for EPEL 8 and EPEL 9, or to add the EPEL Packagers SIG as a co-maintainer so that we can do it on your behalf and help maintain this package in EPEL going forward. You can do that by adding the epel-packagers-sig group through
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ppl/addgroup
and granting it commit access, or collaborator access on epel* branches. Thanks!

Comment 6 Roberto Bagnara 2022-09-01 17:03:30 UTC
Done!
Please do not hesitate to get in touch if anything else is needed.
