it looks like the last Tumbleweed snapshot 20231003 removed package fstrcmp, i.e. libfstrcmp0 here; fwiw, openSUSE:Factory also doesn't contain it anymore.
This package is still needed by Kodi which now shows one orphaned package. Was the removal on purpose? In that case we would have to start building it for Tumbleweed on Packman.
Descr: fails to build and is unused
The buildfailure is easy to fix (already identified to require groff-full), but the deletion crowd went chopping in the woods quicker than anything else.
Yeah, I stored the deleted files in the devel:libraries:c_c++ project and created a new package A_tw-fstrcmp in PMBS/Staging, which only builds for Tumbleweed and Slowroll.
You can just bring it back for openSUSE:Factory. If you set a maintainer on d:l:c/fstrcmp, you get reasonably-timed build failure reports and there is less of a chance someone swings the package axe.
