The upstream repo was recently archived with the last release still being 1.2.0 from 2021.
"This repository was archived by the owner on Mar 22, 2026. It is now read-only."

From what I see, this is only needed needed by the dnfdragora and manafirewall packages, but I might be missing something. For me personally this is resolved uninstalling this library together with dnfdragora which I can't remember using, but for the Fedora Project the question remains on whether this package has a new upstream (didn't find any on a quick search) or if it should rather be retired after migrating the apps to another maintained library.

Comment 5 Neal Gompa 2026-05-17 10:17:01 UTC
dnfdragora and manafirewall no longer require these libraries in rawhide, and I will be backporting it to F44 too.
