Hello!
Hi Christoph!
My name is Christoph Karl and I use Fedora for a long time.
For various reasons I want to change to CentOS,
but I still miss some packages from Fedora.
So I want to learn packaging not only for Fedora but for EPEL also.
I would like to start with the package "qjackctl"
I succeded with a scratch build for EPEL:
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=47379008
But now I do not know how to move on.
Also ownership of "qjackctl" is not clear.
According to devel List it is orphaned
(see Mail from 26.07.20, 23:08 by Fernando Lopez-Lezcano

You cannot take ownership of the package until you're a packager. There
are multiple ways of being a packager though, so that'll be the place to
start:

qjackctl hasn't been orphaned yet---nando is still listed as the primary
maintainer:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/qjackctl
If they're happy to add you as a co-maintainer, that'll be the easiest
way of getting sponsored.
