Hello,

I maintain waypipe when time allows:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mstoeckl/waypipe/
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/waypipe

Upstream waypipe had a big rewrite a couple of versions ago - they still
maintain the "old" c version, so I could just update the package by
building waypipe-c, but they recommend using the rust version.

Thanksfully they've done things well and the protocol is compatible, so
there's no need to keep both packages around, and I don't expect any
problem just swapping in to the rust version, and folks won't need to
update their servers/clients in lockstep.

Also thanksfully, things went rather well when I played with the rust
packaging a couple of months ago; all the dependencies are packaged in
fedora and the build worked (at least locally with this spec[1] --
note it's no longer the latest vestion, I'll need to update again)

[1] https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/waypipe/blob/rust-rewrite/f/waypipe.spec


It's still a basically completely different package though,
so I was wondering if this should go through a new package review or if
I can just push the new spec as part of a normal update for rawhide?
Either way I'd appreciate if someone has time to have a look :)


(Also bonus points if someone tells me what redhat folks think of this,
Olivier is basically here for ELN as far as I can tell but didn't reply
when I asked; if this is going to be a pain down the line it might be
worth keeping both packages just for them)

Thanks,
