  • Describe the issue

I made a mistake during a package update. For the EPEL8 package was an epoch added, I merged those changes into master and built the package but didn't remove the epoch (which is not necessary for rawhide).

I tried to untag the package like I did for another package around 10 years ago.

$ koji untag-pkg f32 gpsd-3.20-1.fc32.1
2020-01-23 22:46:05,880 [ERROR] koji: ActionNotAllowed: tag requires autosign permission

It looks like that only somebody which the proper permissions is able to remove a package. Can an admin please remove gpsd-3.20-1.fc32.1? Thanks.

When do you need this to be done by?
As soon as possible, please.

  • When is this no longer needed or useful? (YYYY/MM/DD)
    Unknown, after the mass rebuild started.

  • If we cannot complete your request, what is the impact?
    Inconvenience for users.

Original report: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/issue/8585

I'm not sure if untagging the 3.20 package will help at this point. Users may have already installed it.

I've reverted the package to 3.19 with an epoch bump.

Users may have already installed it.

Could be or not. I highly doubt that a lot of users are running navigational tasks on their Rawhide systems.

The proper solution would have been to remove the 3.20 package with the epoch and release the 3.20 package. Reverting it, may buy some time but at one point the package should be updated to 3.20 and all tools which depends on gpsd have to be rebuilt anyways.

i will close this as is no taker from releng.
