The Fedora Project is a community of people working together to build a
free and open source Linux software platform and to collaborate on and
share user-focused solutions built on that platform. The Fedora Games
spin offers a perfect showcase of the best Linux games available in
Fedora. This distro includes several genres, from first-person shooters
to real-time and turn-based strategy games to puzzles. Not all the
games available in Fedora are included on this spin, but trying out
this spin will give you a fair impression of distro’s ability to run
great games.

The Games Spin repairs have been submitted as a pull request and are
awaiting merging [1]
In addition to this PR, 6 packages were identified as needing
maintenance. 2 were dropped from the spin (rogue and glob2) and the
rest have been repaired.
The dropping of rogue and subsequent announcement resulted in rogue
getting a new maintainer! Hopefully, we can see that game come back
into the spin in the near future (Thanks @wart!) [2]

Sadly, rogue is now abandoned. It's also broken. This PR removes it
from the Games spin.
Someone pick it up again so we can get it back into the Games spin!

Hi All,
I wanted to announce myself as the new maintainer of the Games spin --
taking over from Bruno Wolff III. Since yesterday, Bruno has been
helping to transition this to me.
I have watched the spin on and off for years and years. I'm thoroughly
excited about taking this on. Woot!

The owner of the Games spin[1] has indicated[2] that he will not be
able to maintain the Spin. If it is not adopted by Friday 15 February,
I will request it be dropped from Fedora 30. If you would like to
adopt this spin, please comment in the Pagure issue[3].
