Dear maintainers.
Based on the current fail to build from source policy, the following packages
will be retired frrom rawhide cca on 2026-03-03.
This is the third reminder.
Policy:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Fails_to_build_from_source_Fails_to_install/
The packages in rawhide were not successfully built at least since Fedora 41.
This report is based on dist tags.
Packages collected via:
https://github.com/hroncok/fedora-report-ftbfs-retirements/blob/master/ftbfs-retirements.ipynb
If you see a package that was built, please let me know.
If you see a package that should be exempted from the process,
please let me know and we can work together to get a FESCo approval for that.
If you see a package that can be rebuilt, please do so.

How will we handle this?
Although fixing rubygems.src FTBFS may not strictly needed (which means
rubygems.src is to be
retired on 2026-Mar), I think it is good (or not bad) that keeping rubygems.src
alone buildable
so that when desired we can update rubygems.src alone.
For now I've prepared for updating rubygems.src to 4.0.6:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/rubygems/pull-request/5
Mass rebuild for the above rubygems seems in good state:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/rubygems/pull-request/5
Note that 2026-Feb-17 is Fedora 44 beta freeze, and if possible I want to put in
rubygems 4.0.6 into Fedora 44 before the above day.
For now, once I am going to update rubygems.src to 4.0.3 to resolve FTBFS +
keep current
rubygems behavior unchanged compared to rubygems.noarch from ruby.src,
maybe tomorrow before F43-beta-freeze.
Regards,
Mamoru
