#9212 Retired in master package nordugrid-arc6 was branched for Fedora 31
Closed: Fixed by mohanboddu. Opened by ellert.

  • Describe the issue

The nordugrid-arc6 package is an EPEL7 only package that is retired on master.
Despite it being retired on master, it was nevertheless branched for Fedora 31.
Can someone check why, and take action so that it does not happen again for the upcoming Fedora 32 branching.

  • When do you need this? (YYYY/MM/DD)

Before the Fedora 32 branching.

  • When is this no longer needed or useful? (YYYY/MM/DD)

After it is fixed.

  • If we cannot complete your request, what is the impact?

New branches for a retired package will be created.


This was not fixed, and the package has now been branched also fo Fedora 32, despite being retired on master. Can you please fix this before the Fedora 33 branching.

There seems to be some bug in "fedpkg retire. When retiring a package from master that exists in rawhide, i.e. the package has a build tagged in rawhide in koji, my experience is that it works. But when retiring the master branch for a newly accepted package intended for EPEL only, and there is no build of the package in rawhide, it has failed every time for me. (My statistics in not large here - I have done this twice, and it has failed both times.)
