#10017 Unretire kuser in f34 and rawhide
Closed: Fixed 3 years ago by humaton. Opened 3 years ago by kkofler.

  • Describe the issue
    kuser was retired by @rdieter in f34 and rawhide a few hours ago. I am a comaintainer and want to keep this package active.
    This package is no longer maintained upstream, but there is no fully functional replacement. The plasmoid that is the official replacement is end-user-centric and only offers a small subset of KUser's functionality. (In particular, it does not allow administrating system users.) And even the non-KDE alternative system-config-users was dropped as part of the Python 2 retirement. The only viable replacement that I know of is lxqt-admin-user from lxqt-admin, which is currently OnlyShowIn=X-LXQt. Hence, I consider this retirement to be in error.

  • When do you need this? (YYYY/MM/DD)
    ASAP, preferably before 2021-04-20 (F34 final freeze).

  • When is this no longer needed or useful? (YYYY/MM/DD)
    N/A

  • If we cannot complete your request, what is the impact?
    The package and its functionality will be missing.

@kkofler Are you sure you want to maintain it, remember that you will be maintaining it for the lifecycle of f34 and probably for future releases?

Please confirm that you are okay with this and we can unretire it for you.

Yes, I am sure I want to maintain it.

The package is now unretired.

I believe it is not properly unretired on f34.

You're right, the f34 branch is still marked as retired, I cannot push to it.

Sorry for that it should be unretired on f34 now.
