Hi Christian,

Great that you want to maintain this package.

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

Please read https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Becoming_a_Mageia_Packager and take the steps mentioned there to find a mentor (it is not sure that saying it here is enough, you might need to repeat in different places that you'd like to become a packager) and to start learning about Mageia packaging.

Wonderful if we can get this, thank you for the efforts!

Currently i use no "social networks" except forums and email, but intend to start using the https://matrix.org/ network - and from my small investigation see ScildiChat is one of the more competent clients, good choice.

Thanks Morgan

If you want to test it, I have put the rpm in my private depot. 
I can grant you access. Just send me a private message and I will give you the credentials.

Note: based on a comment from jybz, the curl command to download and install rustup should not be used, as unsecured. Actually, as I usually don’t use a command I don’t fully master, I have instead downloaded the archive from rustup site and then installed. 

The curl command comes from the GitHub readme. I thought it would be quicker to copy it than explaining to download and install ; my bad…

Hi
I have improved the spec file in order not to download anything while building.
However, as this software is based on electron, it looks like it will never be compliant with Mageia policy.

If you confirm so, I propose to close this report. Just let me know.

I will still maintain it for the MLO community repo, as this matrix seems to be really appreciated. Plus, we don't have so many fully functional matrix clients.

Hi. This will work if and only if Electron is package. I have understood it is not compliant with Mageia policy. Then, I close this report.

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => WONTFIX
