That new feature of yum is also in F-11 updates:

Installed Packages
yum.noarch  3.2.24-2.fc11   @updates

And thank to the developer how has added it! That is very useful indeed.

Upstream tarball splitted into two tarballs

2009-08-20 Thread Laurent Rineau
Since ipe-6.0pre32, the tool ipe5toxml is released as a separate tarball, 
upstream,  whereas is was previously shipped in the ipe tarball (as in 
ipe-6.0pre30).

I have updated Rawhide's ipe to 6.0pre32, but I do not know what to do with 
that tool that disappeared from the tarball.

Should I:
  - make the ipe package have two sources tarball, instead of one, and tweak 
the %prep/%build/%install parts?
  - or package ipe5toxml into a new separate package (with its own src.rpm)?

In the latter case, should ipe5toxml have
  Obsoletes: ipe<6.0-0.30.pre30?
without Provides?

I have not found that case in the packaging guidelines. I hope I have searched 
correctly.

Orphaning par2cmdline

2009-06-30 Thread Laurent Rineau
I have just orphaned par2cmdline¹. I am not using that package for more than 
one year, now, and I was doing the minimal maintenance (taking care of mass-
rebuilds and so on).

Erik van Pienbroek (erik-fed...@vanpienbroek.nl) is already willing to 
maintain it, as he is currently maintaining NTTPgrab, that needs par2cmdline. 
See the discussion in the following bug:
