Could someone please take a look at this? Thanks.

Sorry about the delays.

The package is now unretired. For missing branches please use $fedpkg request-branch

Thanks, though it seems like you reverted back a commit too far on the epel9 branch.

I'm also still getting:

110510475 build (epel9-candidate, /rpms/cxxopts.git:f765579cbcba36125fbf965ad20380678c2833b4): open (buildvm-s390x-22.s390.fedoraproject.org) -> FAILED: BuildError: package cxxopts is blocked for tag epel9-testing-candidate

do'h, I forgot to unblock it in koji. It is done now.

Something is still not right, I get this with fedpkg build:

Could not execute build: Cannot build from stream branch epel8 as it is inactive.
Could not execute build: Cannot build from stream branch epel9 as it is inactive.

Hmm, it looks like something updated the EOL in PDC again and rendered it inactive.

I updated the PDC EOL date and ran fedpkg build from the latest commit. Let's see if it goes through.

Ok so what happened was timing, because there were delays between updating PDC and unblocking the package in koji, automation kicked in and retired the package again.

I took the liberty and built it again and it went ok.

Thank you. Looks like the same treatment is needed for the epel8 branch again:

ping - can I please get some help here?

Somehow the epel8 branch is marked not active in pdc... so it won't let me adjust the sla/eols, which is causing the push failure. ;(

I am not sure how to make it active, I think we will need to poke around the client...

What I did is the use script from releng repo

releng/scripts/pdc/adjust-eol.py fedora $PDC_TOKEN cxxopts rpm epel8 2024-01-01 -y

that sets all the sla to that date and then koji unblock pkg.

Thank you - managed to push and build again.
