I logged in to build.opensuse.org today, and discovered that yet another mass-deletion threat has been issued, and I almost missed it.
I currently have 38 remove requests, and each one says it will be removed automatically in a couple of weeks if I don't respond to the request by declining it.
When I try to decline it, I just get an error page that says: "403: Forbidden Sorry but you don't have the necessary permissions for this request. We think it's best if you try to start again from the home page."
I need to decline these requests or I need them to be revoked before the axe falls on them.
How often will these dead-man switch purges go out? I have a lot of old repos for a reason. The logic in the message: "This repository builds against a distribution which is not officially maintained anymore by its vendor. Therefore it should not be used anymore." ...is an invalid and rude assumption.
I have to maintain packages myself precisely BECAUSE they are "not maintained any more by it's vendor".
Sorry I forgot to paste some links to the actual requests https://build.opensuse.org/user/show/aljex https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/299244 -- bkw -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner@opensuse.org
