#6091 Remove orphaned "ipa" package
Closed: Fixed None Opened 9 years ago by mkosek.

Fedora package database contains "ipa" package:

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/package/ipa/

However, this is a retired package that was never used, FreeIPA package in Fedora is called "freeipa":

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/package/freeipa/

Can you please remove/block/disable "ipa" package in pkgdb and especially in Bugzilla? I sometimes see that FreeIPA bugzillas are being created for "ipa" component where they might get lost.

CCing simo who is the assumed Administrator for the "ipa" package.

Thank you.


Very odd.
According to pkgdb this package was created in may 2014.
I never received any notification, nor initiated this and the package is marked retired.

I am not sure there is anything I can do about this ?

This is because of the migration to PKGDB2. The timestamps were not migrated from the old pkgdb. Therefore it was probably retired before May 2014.

I never received any notification, nor initiated this and the package is marked retired.

What do you want? Do you want the package to be un-retired?

note that we can not remove ipa from bugzilla looking at [http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=5679 koji] it was renamed from ipa to freeipa in Fedora 14.

There is very little we can do here

No, this is retired, unused package.

All I want is to disable "ipa" component so that it cannot be used for [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Fedora&component=ipa new bug reports] to avoid people creating FreeIPA bugs in non-monitored component.

I have disabled the ipa component for new bugs.
