Description Fedora Release Engineering 2025-01-22 20:59:53 UTC
mod2c failed to build from source in Fedora rawhide/f42

https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=128016716


For details on the mass rebuild see:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_42_Mass_Rebuild
Please fix mod2c at your earliest convenience and set the bug's status to
ASSIGNED when you start fixing it. If the bug remains in NEW state for 8 weeks,
mod2c will be orphaned. Before branching of Fedora 43,
mod2c will be retired, if it still fails to build.

Comment 4 Ben Beasley 2025-02-01 15:44:10 UTC
This is a leaf package, and is unmaintained upstream:

https://github.com/BlueBrain/mod2c:

> This repository has been archived by the owner on Jun 8, 2023. It is now read-only.

So it could be a candidate for just letting it go. That said, if it is useful, it looks like it could probably be patched. There are a mixture of old-style (K&R/pre-ANSI) function declarations, functions of unspecified arguments, and general playing fast and loose with function signatures.

Comment 5 Ankur Sinha (FranciscoD) 2025-02-10 13:38:17 UTC
I think we can drop this one. If upstream is completely gone, no point us carrying it ourselves.

Comment 6 Fedora Admin user for bugzilla script actions 2025-02-11 01:55:12 UTC
This package has changed maintainer in Fedora. Reassigning to the new maintainer of this component.

Comment 7 Aoife Moloney 2025-02-26 13:40:14 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 42 development cycle.
Changing version to 42.
