To save time looking this up, I want to direct the attention of pmix and openmpi maintainers (Cc'd) to this chain: munge (orphaned) -> pmix -> openmpi In short, anything that depends on openmpi is at risk of being retired. > Package (co)maintainers Status Change > ================================================================================ [...] > munge orphan 1 weeks ago [...] Regards, Dominik -- Fedora https://getfedora.org | RPM Fusion http://rpmfusion.org There should be a science of discontent.

Orphaning openbabel
by Dominik 'Rathann' Mierzejewski 04 Oct '20

04 Oct '20

Hi everyone, I've finally admitted to myself that I have no time to take good care of openbabel: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/openbabel It has one FTBFS bug in rawhide (related to cmake macro changes) and two requests to update. One in Fedora to move to the recent 3.x series and one for EPEL to update from 2.3 to 2.4. It has 9 consumers in Fedora: avogadro avogadro2 chemtool ghemical gnome-chemistry-utils IQmol kalzium molsketch xdrawchem Hopefully, one of their maintainers (Bcc'd) or someone from SciTech SIG (Cc'd) can pick this up. I'll orphan it in a few days if nobody responds here with their FAS ID. Regards, -- Fedora https://getfedora.org | RPM Fusion http://rpmfusion.org There should be a science of discontent.

Current state of Scientific Spin
by Christian Dersch 20 Jul '20

20 Jul '20

Hi all, I'm wondering about the current state of the scientific spin. Is it still alive? There was no release for 32 and builds are currently failing [1] for Fedora 33 as scilab is not available anymore. I can help with the spin if needed (know how it works as I'm the maintainer of Astronomy Spin). Greetings Christian [1] https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=47421847

orphaning gabedit

Cc'ing SciTech SIG as this is a science-related package. Hello! I'm orphaning gabedit. It has two bugs open: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?bug_status=__open__&component=gabed… Last release was in February this year, so upstream is not dead, but I don't have time to maintain it anymore and I don't use it.
