You're right, it's now definitely gone and broken because gradle-local is gone - but it was also outdated and broken before that. In turn, gradle was removed from fedora because it was really outdated and had security issues. It failed to build, and it even failed to build itself. We tried to keep gradle (and groovy) alive, but it was a pretty gnarly package to begin with, and since we got no help from the previous maintainers, we couldn't save it. Depending on what you want to achieve, I think I can give you better "first package to work on" suggestions :) Fabio > _______________________________________________ > devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org > To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org > Fedora Code of Conduct: > https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ > List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines > List Archives: > https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org >
