Thoughts on orphaning and retiring some .NET packages in Fedora?
by Omair Majid 10 Jan '22

10 Jan '22

Hi, Upstream will stop maintaining .NET 5 on May 08, 2022 [1]. What should we do about .NET 5 packages in Fedora at that point? I think we should - at a minimum - remove .NET 5 from Fedora 36, which is expected to be released at April 2022 [2]. We can leave it in for Fedora 35 and earlier, with the understanding that any security issues in .NET 5 will not be fixed - at least by the package maintainers - after upstream End of Life's it. At some point later in 2022, we are going to run into a similar problem .NET Core 3.1 as well. .NET Core 3.1 will reach its End of Life on December 3, 2022 [1], a little after when Fedora 37 should go out. Perhaps we should remove both 3.1 and 5.0 before Fedora 36 is released? That would reduce the number of users who might accidentally depend on an unsupported package? (I am all but certain that .NET 6 will be available in all active Fedora by early next year.) Thoughts? Comments?

Package review request for .NET 6
by Omair Majid 05 Jan '22

05 Jan '22

Hi, I have opened a bug to add .NET 6 to Fedora: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2027818 My plan is to add this to Fedora 34, 35 and rawhide. If someone can review this package and approve it, I can get started on building it in Fedora. I have tested this locally on Fedora 35 and 34. For rawhide, I am waiting on https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/dotnet-sig/dotnet-preview/build/2… to give me more information. Thanks, Omair -- PGP Key: B157A9F0 (http://pgp.mit.edu/) Fingerprint = 9DB5 2F0B FD3E C239 E108 E7BD DF99 7AF8 B157 A9F0
