Yes. In koji, it has FTBFS (failed to build from source) for two
releases, F30 and F31, probably because build dependencies have
disappeared, so it has been retired (removed from the distro).
I took a quick look at this. It depends on pygtk2 (python2), so it
needs to be ported to python3 and gtk3 (there is a python3 package
for gtk3, but its name isn't obvious like python3-gtk3, so I can't find
it at the moment). I'm not familiar enough with gtk to know how much
work this would be, but I presume it isn't trivial substitution.
Or it needs an exception, because at the end of this year python2 is
EOL from upstream, though it will continue to be maintained in Fedora
for a while to allow time to transition applications to python3.
But for both of these, it would have to go through the new package
process to be added back to the distro by a maintainer now that it is
removed.
