Package re-review BZ URL?

Not needed, the package has been retired only few days (not 8 weeks)

I was on a long, partial PTO and failed to fix the package in time. But I never wished for it to get retired. In fact @dannycolin was working hard trying to fix it in the meantime.

Hello,

For some more context, the package was retired because it failed to install, as announced beforehand here [1]. We are currently discussing [2] what the best way to handle this (now and in the future) is in terms of our process, please be patient.

Thank you kindly.

By the way, I was already able to communicate the issue with upstream and have a working version of the package ready for when it gets unretired.

Hello,

I believe the package should now be unretired. The retirement commit is reverted in both branches and the Koji tags are unblocked.
Please note that I didn't do anything about untagging builds as the discussion is still underway.

I wish you a good day.

Thank you very much for unretiring the package. I already successfully built it for rawhide and F43
