[releng] Issue #7124: Splitting the "sustmi" GNOME Shell extensions into separate packages
terrycloth reported a new issue against the project: `releng` that you are following: `` I maintain two GNOME Shell extensions, currently subpackages of the `gnome-shell-extension-sustmi` package. Upstream finally decided to split the extensions into separate git repositories, so now I think it makes sense to split them into separate RPMs.
I have a couple open review requests on Bugzilla to make sure there's a sane upgrade path. They've been marked as approved.
* [gnome-shell-extension-windowoverlay-icons](https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1506429) * [gnome-shell-extension-historymanager-prefix-search](https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1506428)
But from reading the [Upgrade Paths wiki page](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrade_paths_%E2%80%94_renaming_or_splitting...), it's not super clear to me what to do next. Someone in RelEng needs to approve the new packages, right...? ``

terrycloth added a new comment to an issue you are following: `` Oh, I noticed the "Upgrade Paths" wiki article also says to start the process of retiring the old original package in unstable branches of Fedora and on EPEL. I've executed `fedpkg retire ...` now for EPEL7, f27, and master.
The old subpackages do not appear in any comps or Spins, as far as I know.
These are GNOME Shell extensions, not fonts, so I don't know if I should be emailing some other SIG mailing list.
Is there anything else I need to do? Let me know.
Thanks. ``
