[Rarian] rarian bugfixes?

[Troy Curtis Jr]

Howdy all!

Each of you appear to have some relationship to rarian, whether mentioned
in the source code or involved with packaging it for various distributions.
I gather that rarian is dormant, potentially abandoned, but I was curious
if there is still some place where development might still happen? If there
isn't currently such a place, I assumed this crew might be the set of
people most interested, even if only a little, in seeing a place for
maintenance created.

So my questions are:
1. Does anyone know of any place where maintenance might happen?
2. If not, is there any interest in setting up such a place?

I see that Debian [1] and OpenSuse [2] have already dropped the package,
but it is still around in a few other distributions, such as Slackware,
Gentoo, and Fedora. I investigated a few segfaults experienced by Fedora
users [3] and it looks like the fix is pretty easy. There just needs to be
an upstream to incorporate it! I can, of course, patch it in the Fedora
package, but ideally it should be available for wider distribution.

If no one knows of any location to take in these patches, then I will try
to engage with the Freedesktop team to see if a repo on their Gitlab
instance can be created for use. Anyone that is interested in participating
there is certainly welcome.

Thanks,
Troy
