--- Comment #3 from Ben Beasley <[email protected]> ---
It looks like it has a missing dependency PStreams[1]:

> No matching package to install: 'pstreams-devel'

This was in Fedora[2] but was orphaned and retired. It would need to be
unretired[3]. It’s a simple enough package, but it would need a few changes,
such as, at a quick skim of the spec file:

- It should have been packaged like other header-only libraries[4], in that the
source package should have been called pstreams, with a binary package called
pstreams-devel, rather than calling the source package pstreams-devel. This
means it would actually be a combined unretirement and renaming, and the
original dist-git repository wouldn’t be unretired.
- The spec file should use %make_build/%make_install macros and should run the
tests.
- The Source0 URL can/should be HTTPS
- The Doxygen-generated HTML documentation shouldn’t be packaged, or should be
generated as a PDF, due to guidelines issues with bundled and pre-compiled
JS/CSS[5].

I can help or answer questions on any of this.
