I'm working on evolution-brutus right now:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=434008

The main remaining issue is that the package sets '-Werror' in the
CFLAGS. I'm working on removing it via redefining CFLAGS. It's
tricky because I'm trying to do without having to patch configure
which is a pain to do. Should (hopefully) be done soon.

I would commit my changes directly, but ACLs are locked down. I've
requested the maintainer (bpepple) remove ACLs but no response yet.
Also I have requested access. Could some other fedora-admin do so?

Once committed and rebuilt, I'll e-mail rel-eng to request the
f9-final tag.

This package should never have passed review because the Requires
packages, e.g. php-pear-Auth-OpenID:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=227190

hadn't also passed review. Noted here:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=218581#c26

+1 for blocking this package from f9-final until deps have passed
+review.

I also note that Axel has included this in his CVS request:

Cvsextras Commits: no (too many people in this group)

which doesn't seem like a very good reason to not allow cvsextras.

In general I think this is not a good practice because other
maintainers can't step and help fix a package as per:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/JesseKeating/PackageACLOpening

I think there needs to be a better reason that just "having too many
people". Open ACLs encourages maintainers to share some collective
responsibility for the distribution as a whole (e.g. broken deps are
bad, should be fixed ASAP by any maintainer).

Most maintainers are fairly responsible and it's easy to spot when
somebody changes something (since you get an e-mail), and it's easy to
revert. I never just change something willy-nilly, and always give
the primary maintainer time to respond, but sometimes when something
is time critical or causes broken deps it's appropriate to step in.
(I've opened my ACLs and I'm always grateful if somebody needs to fix
my packages if I'm unavailable to do so).

Considering that we're migrating to MW and hope to use OpenID
(eventually) throughout our websites, would be nice to have this
fixed...

Please ignore this -- overtaken by events.
