#1683 Proven packager request for lupinix
Closed: Fixed Opened by lupinix.

Closed: Fixed
Reopen Issue

Hi,

I'm a packager for ~3 years now and also maintain the Astronomy Spin and just got the LXQt Spin approved for Fedora 26. Now I decided to request becoming a proven packager as I'd like to be able to help with rebuilds required for updated libaries etc. When working on LXQt I've been in that situation too where I had to ask the maintainers of depending packages to rebuild them. In that case I could rebuild by myself, ensure proper timing more easily and do not have to bother the maintainers.

My packaging related activities:
* Main contact of ~50 packages
* Co-maintaining 30 packages (and many more through KDE SIG and LXQt SIG)
* Member of KDE SIG, helping with new required packages and reviews
* Member of LXQt SIG, currently maintaining most of the packages
* Member of Python SIG, many of my packages are Python packages
* Maintainer of Astronomy Spin and new (for F26) LXQt Spin
* >80 reviews, check https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?component=Package%20Review&email1=lupinix%40mailbox.org&emailassigned_to1=1&emailtype1=substring&list_id=7070581&query_format=advanced

I am lupinix' sponsor and worked (still ongoing) a lot with him on packages and reviews. He has good knowledge in packaging and keeps up2date with changes in guidelines. That said, here's my

It's been a week and I see 7 +1's and 0 -1's so this is approved.

Use your powers wisely.

Thank you :) I got the following mail:

kevin kevin@scrye.com has upgraded you to sponsor status in the
'packager' group of the Fedora Accounts System This change is
effective immediately for new operations, and should propagate
into the e-mail aliases within an hour.

It looks like I have the right to sponsor new packagers now, not the provenpackager rights. I also double checked other indications like zodbot and Badges.

oops. I have no idea why I misprocessed this. ;(

Should be all fixed now.
