Hello everyone. Bup has been orphaned since 2019 after python2 was purged from the repositories.
It has since been fully ported to python3 making it eligible to join fedora again. There have been multiple copr repositories over the years so there is plenty of spec files going around and the work is pretty much mostly done already. Personally, after yet another copr repo shows signs of inactivity blocking my upgrade to f41, I have decided to create my own https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/fvalasiad/plasma-kup/, and having some experience packaging stuff in other distributions(Void Linux), I could see myself maintaining or helping maintain this package. First time attempting to package something for fedora and needless to say, I am not in the Packager group so someone would need to sponsor this work. Seemingly working spec and srpm files: https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/fvalasiad/plasma-kup/fedora-41-x86_64/08205246-bup/bup.spec https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/fvalasiad/plasma-kup/fedora-41-x86_64/08205246-bup/bup-0.33.4-1.fc41.src.rpm Link to a successful koji build: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=125464080 Finally, the spec file is essentially forked/inspired by other copr repositories and even void's template for bup, with my sauces added on top so that it passes fedora's packaging guidelines and the project's tests. Uncertain if I should give credit to anyone since the copr repositories seem to be almost exact copies of one another, god knows who the original author is, ah the beauty of FOSS. That will be all, thanks!
