Dear hackers and users, this is a courtesy message to let you know that the following packages will receive delete requests shortly, as they failed to build for > 3 months without any feedback from the maintainers. If there is a package in the list which you feel strongly for, please speak up && (find a maintainer || take maintainership) The packages will now enter the removal process. Of course, the package can be re-added at any time in the future if the problems associated to it are being settled. The packages in question are: (all in openSUSE:Factory) * python-veusz * idutils + global (depends on idutilS) * openlmi-providers + openlmi-networking * pam_passwdqc * lbzip2 * dc3dd * crosstool-ng * python3-efl + econnman + epymc + lekha * perf * hedgewars The ones marked as + FOO are packages depending on the one it's listed under. They would possibly not fail on their own) Cheers Dominique

Why did automated emails that it was not building cease in March? According to the bug you opened, two were sent, the last was sent on March 11th. Fixing now. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

According to the bug you opened, two were sent, the last was sent on March 11th.

Fixing now.

2 mails are sent to the maintainer: after 2 weeks of 'build fail' and 'one week later a reminder'. sending another 15 mails in the hope the maintainer might 'catch one of them'? or what do you suggest? for public consumption: the bot is currently being adjusted to send the mail to the maintainer(s) (as-is) twice (after two and three weeks) - and then, another week later, send it to opensuse-factory for public information (1 mail max per day, grouping the packages into one mail). If nothing comes out of that, the bot will be instructed to file delete requests on my behalf (often, this DOES wake up people, when nothing else does) Cheers, Dominique

sending another 15 mails in the hope the maintainer might 'catch one of them'? or what do you suggest I don't know how I missed the two messages, perhaps in the jam of SLE work and the endless Jira emails filling my inbox.

So yes, sending more would be a good idea as would cc'ing the maintainer on any such 'package removal notice' emails. Also you just opened a bugzilla so clearly that is another option. I thought I was signed up for automatic notification inside the BS for non building packages. Jiri, I'll add you as backup maintainer.

I'll take a look at hedgewars this weekend. It had an upstream fix for 586 the day after the last update. Even if I can't fix 586, surely it can stay as x64 works fine? On Fri, 14 Jun 2019 at 14:14, Dominique Leuenberger / DimStar wrote:

...is this because just the i586 builds fail (x86_64 builds just fine)? I would suggest to simply disable i586 builds at the repository level, but otherwise I am committed to maintaining this (as I have for a while now).

I treat a package as 'failing' for Factory when openSUSE:Factory/$PKG shows any 'failed' entry. openSUSE:Factory accepts packages and changes for packages via submissions - but there are no meta changes to the package (build enable/disable) - if the package claims to not work in i586, it has to specify so in the .spec file by means of ExcludeArch/ExclusiveArch.

The packages in question are: (all in openSUSE:Factory) * python3-efl + econnman + epymc + lekha I guess I missed a submit request, python-efl will replace it as a single spec version, https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/710031 that will hopefully fix the other deps.

* lbzip2

This package is failing to build due to breakage in upstream gnulib (due to glibc 2.28 making incompatible changes). The problem affects (or affected) not only lbzip2, but many other pieces of software that depend on gnulib. (For example, it also broke gzip.) This has happened for many other GNU/Linux distributions besides openSUSE. Upstream bug reports for lbzip2 and glibc: https://github.com/kjn/lbzip2/issues/22 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=915171 Gnulib has since been fixed. Since it's not distributed as a library, all packages that depend on it need to have their source code manually updated. I have produced an buildable version of the lbzip2 RPM using the latest version of gnulib and submitted it to the main lbzip2 project: https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/710118 Hopefully the maintainer will accept it soon. If not, as a last resort, you could appoint me to take over the project.

The request has been accepted so the official lbzip2 RPM is now building without errors. I take it this means it can be taken off your hit-list. :) Regards, Tristan -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Tristan Miller Free Software developer, ferret herder, logologist https://logological.org/ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

osc rq list openSUSE:Factory libzip2 package openSUSE:Factory/libzip2 does not exist

Not yet - it's fixed only when it's fixed in openSUSE:Factory. But if it's already fixed in the devel prj, that is a good step closer. cheers Dominique

You are mistaken: inux-PAM/pam_passwdqc bugowner of pam_passwdqc : ckornacker maintainer of pam_passwdqc : mcalmer, jengelh Don't check user roles in openSUSE:Factory - of course me and coolo are the only 'maintainers' of the distro - but luckily we don't have to maintain all 12k packages :) Cheers, Dominique
