#9804 Orphan kyotocabinet package only on Rawhide
Closed: Fixed 3 years ago by pingou. Opened 3 years ago by robert.

  • Describe the issue
    I would like to orphan the kyotocabinet package, but only on Rawhide. Alternatively, if this is not possible, I would like to orphan it only on all Fedora branches - but not on the EPEL branches. The web interface seems to allow only complete orphaning on all branches, as it seems, which is not desired.

  • When do you need this? (YYYY/MM/DD)
    ASAP, but not urgent.

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

  • If we cannot complete your request, what is the impact?
    According to @ngompa this should be completable ;-)


@robert Why not retire them on the branches you dont want to maintain? Then if someone wants to maintain it for those branches, they will come to you and request for maintaining it for the retired branches. Then you can give the requestor Collaborator access which allows him to maintain only fedora branches (or other branches that you want them to maintain it for you).

@robert You can also assign the Fedora bz assign to orphan if you dont want to get notified on Fedora bugs.

You can also assign the Fedora bz assign to orphan if you dont want to get notified on Fedora bugs.

Note that this is not currently handled well by the orphan-retire process. A preferred alternative would be to orphan the package and then set the EPEL override. (That requires admin action.)
