Dear Package maintainers and hackers.
Below package(s) in openSUSE:Factory have had problems for at least 4 weeks. We tried to send out notifications to the configured bugowner/maintainers of the package(s), but so far no fix has been submitted. This probably means that the maintainer/bugowner did not yet find the time to look into the matter and he/she would certainly appreciate help to get this sorted.
This is a very long list. Is there the possibility that there is a pattern to this failures you already noticed (like "gcc-4711 update needs additional #include <foobar.h> now which was not needed before") that hints at an easy to do mass-job for a lazy sunday afternoon?
I assume that something triggered a rebuild of a fairly big number of packages and many of those fail to build with GCC 14 because they violate C99 in ways GCC no longer permits (by default). At least I was anticipating the failure of gnu-cobol for this reason for quite some time.
It would be much more likely for me to say "ok, let's take on a few of these easy ones" even if I never had to do with the package and I never intend to ever use it *IF* there was information like that available ;-)
Please have a look at https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1220571 and the few links leading from it (and perhaps not so few depending, but often fixed, bugs). Any help with this is greatly appreciated! Martin
Unless somebody is stepping up and submitting fixes, the listed package(s) are going to be removed from openSUSE:Factory.
