From Matt_Domsch@dell.com Thu Jun 23 10:09:40 2011 Date: Thu, 23 Jun 2011 10:09:40 -0500 From: Matt Domsch Matt_Domsch@dell.com To: devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Subject: Proposed package drops due to FTBFS
Below are the of packages which have outstanding FTBFS bugs from earlier Fedora releases. I've split them up by their 'dist' tag which shows when they were last successfully built.
I recommend and propose to FESCo that all non-building packages with Fedora 12 and 13 dist tags be considered for dropping prior to branching Fedora 16.

As I said on Fedora-devel, please drop linbox from this list. I just recently took over as maintainer. I'm fixing the FTBFS by moving to a newer version, which has a new dependency, fflas-ffpack, which recently completed the review process and is now available. I am in the process of negotiating a rebuild with the givaro maintainer, on which linbox depends. I will be out of town Monday through Friday of this week, but will complete the rebuild as soon as possible after I return. Thank you.
Package list is approved (minus linbox as noted).
I fixed photoprint and updated it to latest upstream, so that can be dropped from the list also.
I fixed netgo along with the last round of FTBFS, so it can be dropped.
Don't worry, we'll verify all of these against what's currently built in rawhide.
