#8114 Please retire trafficserver
Closed: Fixed 5 years ago by mohanboddu. Opened 5 years ago by besser82.

  • Describe the issue

The trafficserver package is FTBFS since Fedora 25. The maintainer (@janfrode) is non-responsive. FESCo has approved the retirement. See: https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/2080

  • When do you need this?

If possible, before the branch-off of Fedora 31.


I guess any provenpackager can do this part.

Nope, unfortunately that's just up to the main admin… :/

Hi All,

I see that the primary reason that this package was retired was because of an un-responsive maintainer. The upstream project is well documented, has been making regular releases and has a active community. I am interested in working to reactivate this package, and become its maintainer.

I have a fair amount of experience with Apache Traffic Server, and as part of my $DAYJOB, i do build and maintain rpm's of trafficserver for RHEL/CentOS on my organizations internal repo's. Even though it is for my internal repos, i try to follow the EPEL packaging guidelines, and am happy to do the work required to repackage the current supported versions as per the fedora packaging guidelines(with a little bit of advice and guidance from the pro's, of course).

Regards
R. K. Rajeev.
