Hello, I am going to be orphaning the PycURL package... Upstream is dead, the last new release was in 2008. Yet, PycURL is a critical part of Fedora as Yum uses it to download metadata and packages.
The final straw is that the package failed to build in the latest mass rebuild: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=914411 There are a number of other bugs associated with PycURL, but I didn't want to become the de facto upstream so I've resisted efforts to apply patches to the code. Personally, I'd like to see Yum move away from PycURL but if someone wants to take over upstream development more power to them. -- Jeff Ollie -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
