#543 Request to add iamianmullins to add to packager group to co-maintain twincam
Closed: accepted by ecurtin. Opened by ecurtin.

Hi,

I am upstream and package maintainer of twincam:

https://github.com/ericcurtin/twincam
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/twincam


Hi @ecurtin,

The request seems to be a bit incomplete. Is it following the Becoming a co-maintainer policy?

BTW the twincam in Fedora seems to be missing build. Is there any reason? I just wonder, because the policy states "The current owner of that package will allow the applicant to co-maintain the package and will act as their mentor." where I am not sure about the mentoring part.

Hi @vondruch , thanks very much for getting on this. What additionally is needed in the request?

twincam only became releasable recently, it was going to be @iamianmullins 's first task to get that build running.

@vondruch I did run a koji build, all went well except for i686 build failing. Do you know where one can grab a Fedora i686 userspace to fix these locally these days? Or even disable i686 for twincam, would be an ok solution too.

@ecurtin Mainly, you still have not answered my question, what is this request based upon. And if it is based on "Becoming a co-maintainer policy", are you willing to mentor @iamianmullins? But also do you have enough experience?

Mock still provides i686 if I am not mistaken.

Or even disable i686 for twincam, would be an ok solution too.

@vondruch It is based upon that doc yes. I am willing yes, are there others more suited yes, I maintain a few packages, but know just enough to get by. I think it would be more preferable to have a more experienced packager mentor @iamianmullins for this task.

Thanks for this link, we've never tested this package on i686, it would likely just work, but disabling seems like the better approach for a new package:
