I'm no longer able to properly look after these packages, and having not heard back from any of my co-maintainers over the last week or so, I'm formally orphaning them in hope that they get picked up by someone who can do them justice. The list includes: - yosys: HDL compilation, synthesis, and logic optimization - recent upstream support for SystemVerilog frontend may need to be packaged as standalone RPM, to be used by yosys as a buildrequires dependency - yosyshq-abc (fork of Berkeley ABC logic optimizer and tech-mapping tool, used by yosys as a dependency, but also able to be used as a stand-alone tool) - nextpnr: place-and-route tool for Lattice FPGAs - upstream has done extensive work on supporting other FPGA models, with various degrees of RPM packageability, and it would be nice to incorporate some of that in the Fedora version - **NOTE**: I can't *formally* orphan this package as my co-maintainer is the official owner, but walking away from it nonetheless !!! - trellis: Lattice ECP5 FPGA dependency for nextpnr - icestorm: Lattice iCE40 FPGA dependency for nextpnr - python-migen: a "pythonic" HDL meta-language that elaborates to Verilog before being compiled (e.g., with Yosys) Best, --Gabriel -- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected] Do not reply to spam, report it: https://forge.fedoraproject.org/infra/tickets/issues/new
