Assigning this package request to all packagers collectively. On a voluntary basis, one of them might, if there are no license or other legal issues, want to integrate it to the distribution and maintain it for bug and security fixes.

You might also want to join the packager team to maintain this piece of software: see https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Becoming_a_Mageia_Packager

Note that this application is not very likely to get packaged, because upstream seems dead. Moreover, there was an existing package request for it in bug#8876

I'll close that one as duplicate of this one, instead of the other way around, because here comment #0 contains instructions on how to install it in Mageia using a Fedora rpm.

The relvation project has not been releasing new versions since 2020 and according to this bug report: https://github.com/mikelolasagasti/revelation/issues/94, the Gnome version that revelation was built on is no longer supported.

Is the revelation project dead? Andcan this bug report be closed and reopened if somebody needs it later on?

It is not dead but also not highly active. Last release is from April 2022. Don‘t confuse flatpack build with normal build…

Comment 6 Morgan Leijström 2023-12-26 19:18:47 CET

I dont think we should introduce yet another password manager which seem to be less maintained.  We have some agnostic alternatives already, and have our few hands full.

Ans IF some user need Revelation specifically, they can install it as Flatpak.
