== Acerca de Paquetes Retirados y Huerfanos (Obsoletos) ==
When Fedora maintainers do not want or are not able to maintain a package any
longer, they can orphan or [[How_to_remove_a_package_at_end_of_life|retire]] the
package. When they think that the package is still useful for Fedora, they
should orphan it. Then other maintainers that are interested in maintaining it,
can take ownership of this package. In case the package is no longer useful for
Fedora, e.g. because it was renamed, upstream does not exist anymore, then it
should be retired. But this is only possible for development releases such as Branched or Rawhide.
Orphaned packages remain in stable releases and are the responsibility of the collective packaging community to maintain.
{{admon/warning|Retiring packages|Orphan packages will be retired if they remain orphaned for six weeks.}}
{{admon/warning|When to orphan and retire your packages|We encourage maintainers considering orphaning their packages to do it as early in the development cycle as possible. Shortly after the prior release is branched is a good time.}}
== Procedimiento de Huérfano ==
# Visit your package's Pagure repository, and navigate to the settings for that repo. The URL will look something like this -- https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/PACKAGE_NAME/settings
# Navigate down to the ''Give Project'' section and "give" the project to the "orphan" user.
# For completeness, under the ''Users and Groups'' section, remove yourself from the list as well.
# Also reset your watch status if you do not want to be CC'ed on new package bugs
# Announce on [https://lists.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel devel] which package you orphaned, so that others have a chance to take over as maintainer.
== Reclamando la propiedad de un Paquete Huérfano ==
# Check why the package was orphaned by looking for the email to [https://lists.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel devel].
# [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/WhatHappenedToPkgdb#How_do_I_adopt_an_orphaned_package_or_unretire_a_package.3F_.28TODO.29 PkgDB was recently deprecated]. For now, you will need to [https://pagure.io/releng/issues submit a ticket to the Release Engineering team], stating which package you want to claim.
# Also announce on [https://lists.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel devel] which packages you want to take over.
# When all the above is complete and Release Engineering has made you the new package owner, reassign and claim all open bug reports for the package in Bugzilla.
== Reclamando la Propiedad de un Paquete Retirado ==
{{admon/warning|Un-Retiring long-time retired packages|Packages that are retired for Rawhide for more than two weeks need to be reviewed again before they can be un-retired. This is also true for EPEL-only packages.}}
If you really want to maintain a retired package, you need to be aware that
if upstream is dead, fixing release critical bugs, etc becomes your
responsibility. This is to ensure the high quality and standards of packaging
remain for Fedora package collection. There may be additional issues with
retired packages. If possible, consult with the former maintainer for more information.
The process is a bit different from unorphaning a package
# See if you can figure out why the package was retired including searching for information about orphaned packages on [https://lists.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel devel mailing list] or emailing the former maintainer. You can also check dead.package in the SCM (url like: [https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/system-config-network/blob/master/f/dead.package https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/'''package_name_here'''/blob/master/f/dead.package])
# Announce on [https://lists.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel devel]  which packages you would like to become the owner of.
# Retired Fedora packages (master/devel/rawhide branch retired) require a re-review if they are retired for more than two weeks or if there is no previous review of the package. Submit a review request (a new bugzilla ticket) and have the package approved by a reviewer as if it were new to Fedora.  See [[Package Review Process|the package review process]] for more information. To unretire a EPEL branch if the package is still in Fedora, no re-review is required.
# Request unretirement by filing a [https://pagure.io/releng/issues releng ticket]. Specify all branches that need to be un-retired (inlcuding "master" for Rawhide, unless it is for EPEL only) and include the link to re-review. In this ticket, request that the [[ReleaseEngineering|Release Engineering team]] unblock the package for the releases that the package should be un-retired for. In this request, clearly specify which branches should be unblocked.
# Restore the contents in GIT and prepare a new build and update (if necessary).
