Closed: Can't Fix
Reopen Issue
  • Describe the issue
    The ocaml-odoc-parser package has become a subpackage of the ocaml-odoc package. About 24 hours ago, I ran fedpkg retire in my ocaml-odoc-parser checkout. I also closed a FTI bug stemming from the recent OCaml 5.1.0 update as WONTFIX.

A new FTI bug was opened, after the retirement: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2242940. The bug refers to the version number of the last build of the ocaml-odoc-parser package as a separate entity; the ocaml-odoc-parser that is a subpackage of ocaml-odoc has a higher version number, and is installed by mock without complaint.

Today's Rawhide report doesn't show that ocaml-odoc-parser was retired, even though a build I did later in the day shows up in the report.

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ocaml-odoc-parser/tree/rawhide shows the expected dead.package.

Did some part of the retirement process fail to happen?

  • When do you need this? (YYYY/MM/DD)
    No particular date
  • When is this no longer needed or useful? (YYYY/MM/DD)
    Never. This should be done sometime.
  • If we cannot complete your request, what is the impact?
    A zombie ocaml-odoc-parser package will apparently hang around, causing who knows what mischief.

I think this is good. I am running the FailsToInstall bugzilla script again and it will hopefully close the bugzilla.

The bugzilla was opened on the same day as the retirement happened. Generally, packages are blocked in Koji (and hence removed from the repository) each night, so this was merely a race condition. I wish the retirement happened immediately, but it does not :(

Metadata Update from @churchyard:
- Issue close_status updated to: Can't Fix
- Issue status updated to: Closed (was: Open)

I've closed this as can't fix because I cannot fix the behavior of the FailsToInstall bugzilla script.

As far as ocaml-odoc-parser is concerned, it's all good.

Great. Thank you, Miro.
