Remove distribution mapping #1662

Closed jamesjer closed 1 year ago

jamesjer commented 1 year ago

I have flagged https://release-monitoring.org/project/63/ multiple times over the last 6 weeks, asking to have the Fedora mapping removed. The Fedora package now contains what release-monitoring.org calls commons-configuration2, not commons-configuration. I cannot add the correct mapping because of the existing mapping. There has been no action. Is anybody monitoring the flags?

Even better: give us packagers a button to remove a distribution mapping. We could use this when retiring a package, or switching a package to a new upstream. We can add arbitrary mappings, and arbitrarily edit existing projects, so I fail to see what is being protected by not giving us such a capability.

I'm sorry for this, I'm trying to check the flags from time to time. There currently isn't any system to notify admins about new flag being filled in.

I removed the mapping and the project as well, as it doesn't seems to be working correctly and there is already another one that does the same.

Thank you. I'm sure you have lots of more important work to do, which is exactly why a button to let me remove mappings myself is such a great idea. :-) Be well.
