That is probably a limitation of the system in that we don't know if
any person will ever become a packager or become one again. So even if
the account is set inactive, it will show up in that userID part. The
GUI would be useful if it said something like "Account Inactive". The
history is kept so that if someone needs to know if package X was
touched by say UID99 because it was found out that they were
silently dropping exploits in.. and then left we (and everyone else)
can audit it for that. [Or at least that is the usual reasoning
given.]

Besides the fact, there wasn't an F25 mass rebuild, which alone implies 
"2 failed mass rebuilds == 2+ years", this rule never really worked, 
IMO, because packages often FTBFS for trivial reasons (e.g. missing BRs) 
which were fixed as "easy fixes" by provenpackagers, resulting into the 
package surviving longer.


Just consider the openssl-1.1.0 case: Most packages which currently FTBS 
due to openssl-1.1.0 compatibility issues (Wild guess: 20+ packages), 
probably can be rebuilt by switching their specs to using 
compat-openssl-devel.

Is there a way to request a package owned by somebody else to be retired?

I am asking, because during the recent mass rebuilt, a larger number
packages have been rebuilt, whose maintainers are known to have left Fedora
or apparently do not seem/do not seem to be able to care about their
packages.


We have nothing in place other than to start the non-active maintainer
process for all of them.


Unfortunately, this doesn't cover the case of
"IMHO package X should be removed, because I believe it's 
obsolete/dead/outdated/insecure whatever, but I am not in position 
and/or not knowledgeable on details to decide".



A real world example, I just encountered this situation, is this: 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1424024


- Maintainer apparently is inactive in Fedora since 2015-06-22 
(https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/userinfo?userID=819)


- No maintainer activity on package since 2013 (fc20).
All builds since fc20 were performed by releng/provenpackagers.

- Package F26FTBFSes 
(https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=11868)
Trigger for the F26FTBFS is -Werror, but the real issue underneath is 
openssl-1.1.0 incompatibility. As a short term "work-around/easy-fix", 
it is possible to resort to building against compat-openssl10, but in 
longer terms, a port to openssl-1.1.0 would be required.



Would a tracking bug in RHBZ "nominees for package removal", which would 
be assigned to FESCO be helpful?

The URL I was referring to, is:

Pick a random UID and check the results.

You'll find many users/accounts,
* who appear to stopped have contributing to Fedora many years ago
* who appear to never have built any package.
* for "build machines" (No idea, why these exist and why these are mixed

Can you give us a list of these?
I didn't keep records of those names, I tumbled across and I am not sure 
whether it's fair to "denunciate" these people in public.
However I can send you the (very short) list of those "suspects" I 
recall off-head on PM.



It will be easier to track down what
is going on.

Theoretically, FESCO's track should have tickets about these.

Also, in the past, IIRC, koji (or was it bodhi?) did record a person's 
last build activites, which would provide a strong indication about a 
person's activities. Unfortunately I can't find this anymore.


Furthermore, very strong hints on such packagers provides this page:
http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/mass-rebuild/f26-need-rebuild.html
when combining it with koji and finding packages which have not been 
built by its maintainers/owners for years.



Personally I would like to have a "sign of life" renewal
to Fedora accounts to try and track this down but people have said
that is too much bureaucracy.

Agreed, I think this is inevitable.
