Version 1.5.0 has just been released See https://github.com/xiph/flac/releases/tag/1.5.0 for changelog It would be awesome if the maintainer could bump the package to latest version before the release of fedora 42 Reproducible: Always

There is a libFLAC soname change, so the update will not be that easy. We will need a proven packager to rebuild packages in a side tag.
The Multimedia SIG has proven packagers and can help with rebuilds. I suggest doing an impact check in COPR and, if everything builds fine, update and build flac in a side-tag and let us know. We'll assist.
Ok, thanks. I tried building all packages that depend on flac-libs in a local mock, except chromium which would take too long. The following packages failed: easytag, musescore, scummvm, SFML, timidity++. easytag, scummvm, timidity++ already failed in the F42 mass rebuild. SFML fails due to wrong build dependency (openal-soft-devel no longer provides openal-devel). musescore fails in check-rpaths, that doesn't seem to be related to flac. So to me it looks like it's good to go. I pushed the flac update and built it in f43-build-side-105652. If you think it's ok to do this also in F42, please feel free to merge flac rawhide in f42 and build it in a new side tag. Here is the full list of packages (libsndfile and audiofile need to be built first as other packages depend on them): libsndfile audiofile SDL_sound SFML allegro5 aqualung ardour6 ardour7 ardour8 audacious-plugins audacity audiocd-kio bigloo butt chromium easytag flac123 getdata gstreamer1-plugins-good gtkpod k3b kid3 kwave libextractor libfishsound libopenmpt mame mednafen minidlna mkvtoolnix mp3fs musescore ocp opus-tools qmmp retroarch scummvm scummvm-tools sox squeezelite timidity++ traverso vavoom vlc vlfrx-tools vorbis-tools xine-lib xmms2
Is there a someplace where one could track the progress?

Does the offer from the multimedia SIG still stand? If you no longer have the capacity to do the rebuild, I can ask for help on the fedora devel list.
The packages have been rebuilt and submitted here: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2025-f797ec90df

I'm glad you found assistance with the rebuilds.
