The current version of goldendict packaged for Fedora is very old and outdated, currently built against Qt4 and has major issues with HiDPI displays. Qt4 is deprecated and no longer supported by upstream.

I asked maintainer to respond via RHBZ, Email and PR ticket multiple times, but got no answer. After creating mailing list post he appeared for a while, merged my pull request and disappeared again. F29 build of GoldenDict is still broken on HiDPI displays.
I think he no longer interested in GoldenDict package, so can I get co-maintaintership of it?
Where is the nonresponsive Bugzilla with weekly reminders?
The "Initialized non-responsive procedure" comment is just ~2 weeks old.

I feel your pain but this isn't exactly following the policy. https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Policy_for_nonresponsive_package_maintainers/
OK. Hold this ticket for 1 week.
Let's try this again. Maintainer still not responding.
Hello everybody,
Due this claim, I built this request many times after this req:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/goldendict/pull-request/1
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1182366 https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1182362
And the problem from Koji not from me, So I think this claim donesn't stand on anything.
Thank You
@moceap Build and push release for Fedora 29. If you have no free time, add me as co-maintainer. I will do it myself.
