Description Dominik 'Rathann' Mierzejewski 2023-09-01 11:09:28 UTC
Description of problem:
Please include MinGW builds of libmad as subpackages of this package. An example of how to do it is: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/gstreamermm/blob/rawhide/f/gstreamermm.spec

Once done, the mingw-libmad RPM Fusion package (https://admin.rpmfusion.org/pkgdb/package/free/mingw-libmad/) can be retired.

Adding original mingw-libmad maintainer to Cc.

Comment 2 Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2023-09-01 11:12:21 UTC
it should have no users of libmad-minwg, please consider the rpmfusion conterpart as leftover

Comment 3 Dominik 'Rathann' Mierzejewski 2023-09-01 11:28:17 UTC
Well, a quick sourcegraph[1] search reveals several places referring to "yum install mingw32-libmad", so it was clearly used.

Of course, it's your choice as maintainer. I just thought it'd be good to have this in one place to avoid duplicate work.

For me, apart from initial work to add the mingw subpackages to gstreamermm, it has been zero additional work.

There's also a PR to switch to a new upstream, which you might have missed: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/libmad/pull-request/1 .
