I will be orphaning the ofono package today. I'd primarily packaged it with the the intention that it may become a new dependency of pulseaudio (which never happened), and I've not been able to give it the time it needs.
Recently updated to latest 1.22 release which fixed a long-standing FTBFS issue, so at least it is in good shape for anyone interested in picking it up.

Isn't it an optional dependency of pulseaudio, as in pulseaudio will use it if it's running? That's what the pulseaudio documentation says. It will use it for bluetooth HFP mode if it's there, otherwise you can't have HFP mode. That's what I was unsuccessfully trying to get working when I found the build issue and new version.

OK, maybe it's worthwhile keeping then. I'd asked some PA devs about that awhile back, and I'd gotten the impression ofono wouldn't be used at all... at least not in the configuration fedora uses it.

Hello, Rex.
Recently a new version of modem-manager-gui has been released. This new release added an option to use ofono as the modem manager. I've updated the mmgui package and ran into a problem where the rawhide [1] and F28 [2] builds succeed, but the F27 [3] and F26 [4] builds fail, as it seems the latest ofono builds for these Fedoras didn't support all architectures, so the mmgui build fails due to unsatisfied dependencies.
Would you possibly be willing to unretire ofono, or should I just drop the ofono plugin? I don't know how complicated ofono is and whether I'd be able to unretire and maintain it myself.
Thanks, A.I.

I haven't retired it yet, and probably won't in the foreseeable future (yet).
I'm working on updating it for all fedora releases, and it should be available to build against soon.

builds submitted to bodhi as updates and overrides, so test and/or try rebuilding things now.

I've built modem-manager-gui for F28, F27 and F26 and submitted the updates to bodhi.
Thank you, Rex.
