Hi As part of my work as AArch64 secondary architecture developer I keep git trees of all Fedora packages on my development machine. Tend to update it ~weekly. Script for it is easy: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ #!/bin/bash HTMP=`mktemp -d` echo "fetching Fedora packages list" pkgdb-cli list |cut -d" " -f4 |sort >$HTMP/fedoralist ls -d1 * |sort >$HTMP/localpackages diff -u $HTMP/localpackages $HTMP/fedoralist |grep ^+|sed -e "s/^+//g"|grep -v fedoralist >$HTMP/newpackages echo "new packages are:" cat $HTMP/newpackages echo "cloning new packages" for pkg in `cat $HTMP/newpackages`; do fedpkg clone $pkg done ------------------------------------------------------------------------ But there are entries in pkgdb which can not be fetched that way: actdiag gnome-cpufreq-applet kf5-textwidgets nwdiag python-elementtree repsurgeon R-gnomeGUI seqdiag tetex-beamer tetex-pgf tetex-xcolor All those packages were orphaned and removed from git. Time to kill them from pkgdb as well?

Well, is it expected that pkgdb-cli list still prints retired packages?

http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/?q=actdiag doesn't find the git repo either. Same for "seqdiag" and "nwdiag".

But there are entries in pkgdb which can not be fetched that way: actdiag gnome-cpufreq-applet kf5-textwidgets nwdiag python-elementtree repsurgeon R-gnomeGUI seqdiag tetex-beamer tetex-pgf tetex-xcolor
