Description of problem: I just steal src rpm from http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/SRPMS/basket-1.0.3.1-8.el6.src.rpm Add this line into '%setup' section, compile passed and it works perfect. ==== sed -i \ '/#include <kdebug.h>/s|$|\n#include <unistd.h>\n#include <sys/types.h>|' \ src/likeback.cpp ==== Or you can make a small patch. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): missing in repo. How reproducible: N/A Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: No basket in F17 repo Expected results: basket goes into F17 repo or even rawhide Additional info: The kde 4 version of basket 1.8.xxx is still in beta stage. Please keep this old KDE 3 software in repo utile kde 4 or 5 version goes stable. Thanks.
I could do that. But there is one small problem of concept here: while I am interested in having it in EPEL, I do not have the resources to care for its Fedora counterparts. I do not think that it is correct to push a package just for the sake of having it, without having a maintainer for it.
I use bakset (kde3 version) to store my huge notes (git enabled) everyday. Will you take it if I take QE work of this package? I am no Fedora QE yet. If needed, I can follow procedure to apply one. If you want some one who is using Fedora to take package maintainer work, maybe I can apply for it (no sure whether my boss allow me to do).
BTW: Manuel, please check 'Need additional information from' below the comment box to send a needinfo to me when you need reply. I got thousands of emails sent from this bugzilla. Thanks.
I have no idea what "QE" means but I can only repeat what I have said before: I am more than willing to take care of the EPEL branches but we need a different maintainer for the Fedora branches. I do not have the time to look over the shoulder of someone else and verify his/her work so a person who is already a Fedora maintainer would be needed.
QE == 'Quality Engineer' I have no idea how Fedora team handle this. I will close this bug as won't fix. I am OK to keep a personal compile rpm. If any Fedora maintainer want it in repo, reopen or clone to new one. Thanks.
