[Request] magic-wormhole (and fowl)

[pointydev]

What software are you requesting to be packaged? magic-wormhole

Describe the motivation wormhole is an extremely useful utility for P2P/relayed data transfer. It used to be packaged on the main Fedora repos, but has been abandoned since F36 due to a lack of willing maintainers and a complex dependency chain (as far as I can gather).

Additional context A copr for the package is available here, with the original Fedora package here. Additionally, another package that may be of interest is fowl, which is based on the same underlying protocol but with a broader objective.

Thanks, pointy

We kinda have the same problem with Fedora then, in the sense that we will also need to maintain the complex dep chain (since our python guidelines don't differ that much)

Python requires the dependencies to exist on the host machine during runtime due to the nature of… being a scripting language, which means we need to package all deps too.

This isn't as many deps as I was expecting and pyp2rpm is one of the few 2rpm tools I can stand using, I'd be willing to try and take this on?
