Dear all,

I have orphaned the grib_api package for Fedora (which is now also FTBFS since the F42 mass rebuild), both due to lack of time and since grib_api has now been unmaintained upstream for over 6 years. It is replaced by eccodes for those architectures that supports it.

Upstream writes on https://confluence.ecmwf.int/display/ECC/ecCodes+Home:

ecCodes is now the primary GRIB encoding/decoding package used at ECMWF. GRIB-API is no longer maintained (as of December 2018). Replacing GRIB-API with ecCodes is expected to be transparent for current GRIB-API users. In particular the "grib_" functions are included in the ecCodes library. Users are strongly advised to start the migration process.

Unfortunately eccodes does not support the i686, ppc64, and armv7hl architectures. If users would need this I recommend them to file a request at ECMWF to implement this for eccodes.

Jos
