Since we neither compile nor run benchmarks during package builds, the dependency is entirely useless: - it inflates the dependency tree, and makes installation of package dependencies slower - it inflates crate build times - it is never actually used, just installed and compiled for zero reason at all In 99.9% of cases, removing the "criterion" dev-dependency from Cargo.toml has zero consequences for Fedora builds. So that's what I'd recommend you do for noisy_float as well. Fabio

Hello Hussein, Since this package has been retired for more than 8 weeks, the procedure is to file a new package review: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Policy_for_orphan_and_retired_pa…

State of rust-criterion

Hello everyone I am currently trying to build `noisy_float` [1] and `rust-criterion` is a dependency for that crate. Looking at the pagure repository [2] I can see that the package was pronounced dead two months ago. The last commit says that the package was never needed. What should I do to revive the package? Or maybe who should I talk to? Thank you for you answers in advance! Best wishes, Hussein [1] https://github.com/SergiusIW/noisy_float-rs [2] https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/rust-criterion
