Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal
With the newest upload of golang-goprotobuf, golang-raft now fails to
build from source, see #789987.
There is a trivial fix for this problem, but upstream does not want to
merge it as the library is unmaintained:
https://github.com/goraft/raft/pull/245
All consumers of the library have moved to other libraries. It was
originally packaged for etcd, which has moved to its own raft
implementation.
There are no reverse-dependencies in Debian on this package.
I’ve consulted with Jelmer Vernooij <[email protected]>, and he agreed
to remove the package entirely instead of fixing this issue in Debian:
21:52 sECuRE> actually, which package depends on golang-raft, i.e. why did you
package it? using debian code search, i can’t find any packages with references
to golang-raft-dev
21:53 sECuRE> i’m just wondering because the upstream package is unmaintained,
see e.g. https://github.com/goraft/raft/pull/245
Day changed to 30 Jun 2015
01:10 jelmer> it was packaged for etcd, but etcd no longer uses it
08:57 sECuRE> i see. i think it’d be better to remove it from debian entirely,
then. do you agree?
15:18 jelmer> ack :)
Hence, please remove the package. Thanks!

We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following
package(s) have been removed from unstable:
golang-raft | 0.0~git20140427-4 | source
golang-raft-dev | 0.0~git20140427-4 | all
------------------- Reason -------------------
ROM; FTBFS; abandoned upstream
----------------------------------------------
Note that the package(s) have simply been removed from the tag
database and may (or may not) still be in the pool; this is not a bug.
The package(s) will be physically removed automatically when no suite
references them (and in the case of source, when no binary references
it). Please also remember that the changes have been done on the
master archive and will not propagate to any mirrors until the next
dinstall run at the earliest.
Packages are usually not removed from testing by hand. Testing tracks
unstable and will automatically remove packages which were removed
from unstable when removing them from testing causes no dependency
problems. The release team can force a removal from testing if it is
really needed, please contact them if this should be the case.
We try to close bugs which have been reported against this package
automatically. But please check all old bugs, if they were closed
correctly or should have been re-assigned to another package.
Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed. If you
have further comments please address them to [email protected].
The full log for this bug can be viewed at https://bugs.debian.org/790670
This message was generated automatically; if you believe that there is
a problem with it please contact the archive administrators by mailing
