#4485 run POC-Change script for EPEL
Closed: Fixed 7 years ago Opened 9 years ago by till.

There is a script notifying Fedora maintainers on fedora-devel about (un)orphaned and (un)retired packages. This should also be done for EPEL.

Easyfix task:
Find the script in ansible and adjust it for EPEL 5, 6 and 7 (make it accept a cmd line option or configuration file to specify the release and mailing list) and submit a patch here.


The script is announcing POC changes for Fedora and EPEL both, so do you want
a) send the email to devel@lists.fp.o and epel-devel@lists.fp.o as well?
b) adjust it so that it only sends the Fedora specific bits to devel@ and the epel specific bits to epel-devel@

It seems to be that a) might be a better solution so that EPEL maintainers are aware when a package changes POC in Fedora, while b) seems to me a little too restrictive.

Thoughts?

Maybe something in-between is best, send the mail as it is to EPEL but send only the Fedora parts to the Fedora devel list. Then we have both.

May I ask for the status of this case?

Hi pingou,

I want to work on this ticket. Please let me know, what all should I need to get this task done.

I have attached the patch into INFRA.

By pingou: The proper place is not ansible but ​https://github.com/pypingou/fedora-owner-change
Should I also reflect the changes there?

Can you please nag about this after the freeze is done? (either here or in meeting).

I don't think this needs a freeze break, but we will want to close it out after freeze. :)

Sure!

I completely forgot about this ticket.

Applied your patch and pushed out.

Thanks.
