Also, pvm needs to be rebuilt on rawhide against the new Tcl 8.5, currently it has been the broken dep report for almost a week: pvm-gui - 3.4.5-7.fc6.1.i386 requires libtk8.4.so pvm-gui - 3.4.5-7.fc6.1.i386 requires libtcl8.4.so Is the maintainer active? The last koji build from this user was back in October: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/userinfo?userID=14 and this package hasn't been rebuilt since FC-6.
(Also, if the ACLs weren't locked down, other maintainers could help fix this).
Actually, can't we just kill pvm? It was long ago supposedly replaced by LAM, and that was so long ago that LAM has been replaced by openmpi. I consider pvm a deprecated (at best) technology. So, if someone else wants it, they can have it. I've more or less got my hands full taking care of openmpi, lam, all InfiniBand related packages, and all InfiniBand related kernel code.
If you don't want to maintain you can orphan it via PackageDB and/or allow cvsextras users to modify the packages (or both), currently nobody else can fix it: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/packages/name/pvm I can pick it up and maintain it (at least in the short term).
Thanks for the link. Package orphaned.
Patch applied and now built successfully in rawhide: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=30973 closing bug.
Also I opened up ACLs so that package can be fixed any Fedora contributor in the future...
