Description Thomas Spura 2014-11-19 08:00:22 UTC 
When czmq has been rebuild against zeromq-4 in bug #1165553, this is the last package, that depends on zeromq3.

Would it be possible to retire this package and add a perl-ZMQ-LibZMQ4 package, if needed? Maybe it is also possible to just use the perl-ZMQ-LibZMQ (which should always be build against the latest version of zeromq)?

I'd like to retire zeromq3 as soon as the depending packages have been ported to zeromq-4.

Current dependencies of this packages are:
repoquery --disablerepo \* --enablerepo rawhide --repoid=rawhide --whatrequires perl-ZMQ-LibZMQ3
amavisd-new-zeromq-0:2.10.1-1.fc22.noarch
Comment 1 Petr Pisar 2014-11-22 15:14:55 UTC 
There is nothing like a ZMQ-LibZMQ <http://search.cpan.org/search?query=ZMQ&mode=dist> as there is nothing like a zeromq library. Each of the ZMQ-LibZMQ<X> is a wrapper around specific zeromq-<X> library.

There is a ZMQ which is a wrapper above ZMQ-LibZMQ2 and ZMQ-LibZMQ3 to provide common abstract interface. It's author does not yet included ZMQ-LibZMQ4 support but he doubted about zeromq API stability <https://github.com/lestrrat/p5-ZMQ/issues/29>.

The ZMQ-LibZMQ4 has not yet been packaged for Fedora.

I had the same doubts a while back, but I have changed my mind. ZeroMQ seems to be a lot more stable, that it was a few years ago. There are also some reports, that older versions run quite unstable, so it would be nice to not use them anymore...

My perl knowledge is limited, so I cannot test if ZMQ-LibZMQ3 would work with version 4. A scratch build with zeromq-4 seems to work:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=8816927

except for this:
+ make test
PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 "/usr/bin/perl" "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-MTest::Harness" "-e" "undef *Test::Harness::Switches; test_harness(0, 'inc', 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t
# 
#    This is ZMQ::LibZMQ3.pm version 1.16
#    Linked against zmq 4.0.5

Result: PASS

Are you willing to take over the zeromq3 package then?
I'd like to retire it completely, yet if you still require it, I'd only orphan it?
Comment 3 Jaroslav Reznik 2015-03-03 16:31:20 UTC 
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 22 development cycle.
Changing version to '22'.

More information and reason for this action is here:

Comment 4 Thomas Spura 2015-05-19 11:40:20 UTC 
Jose could you please retire perl-LibZMQ3 as I'd like to nuke zeromq3 from the distribution? No other package currently requires perl-LibZMQ3.
Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2016-07-19 12:25:22 UTC 
Fedora 22 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-07-19. Fedora 22 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
Comment 6 Thomas Spura 2016-11-13 10:43:35 UTC 
I plan to retire zeromq3 now next week, see:

Comment 7 Petr Pisar 2016-11-14 09:35:01 UTC 
Fine. I will retire it once you retire it.

I noticed I do not own this package. Then it's up to Jose Pedro Oliveira.

zeromq3 is now retired.
Comment 10 Petr Pisar 2016-12-23 10:11:05 UTC 
Any progress? Please see <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_remove_a_package_at_end_of_life> for how to retire a package.
Comment 11 Petr Pisar 2017-01-20 13:58:43 UTC 
If you are too busy, you can orphan the package and then I could adopt it and retire it in turn.

Retired in Fedora ≥ 26. Waiting on blocking in Koji.

Great, thanks!
