Looking for a maintainer of server:monitoring/liboping

Hello openSUSE! I was chasing maintainer reviews for incoming submissions to Leap 16.0 and I found out that the current maintainer of liboping doesn't want to maintain the package any more as he hasn't done any maintenance in the past several years. Would there be somebody interested to step in? liboping is a C library for measuring network latency using ICMP echo requests. It can send to and receive packets from multiple hosts in parallel, which is nice for monitoring applications. Both IPv4 and IPv6 are supported transparently for the programmer and user. liboping is one of dependencies that blocks addition intel-gpu-tools to 16.0 Thank you very much in advance -- Best regards Luboš Kocman openSUSE Leap Release Manager

Have you tried gifting liboping to the intel-gpu-tools maintainer? ;-)

Many thanks to Tejas Guruswamy (MasterPatricko) for standing up and taking over the package! On Tue, Dec 3, 2024 at 11:26 AM Lubos Kocman <lubos.kocman@suse.com> wrote:
