Describe the issue

I noticed this package:

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-ttystatus/commits/rawhide

It was retired in distgit 7 years ago, then the retirement commit was reverted, but the package is still retired. Except the specfile is in distgit, complicated automatic detection based on spec files, leading to bogus bugzillas like https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2378292

Coudl you please retire it in distgit and ensure there are no more packages like that?

When do you need this? (YYYY/MM/DD)

Any time.

When is this no longer needed or useful? (YYYY/MM/DD)

No idea. Always useful?

If we cannot complete this, what is the impact? [Dependencies/Blocker]

Specfiles of retired package will be included in the https://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/repo/rpm-specs-latest.tar.xz

I am trying to run

parallel -j3 koji list-pkgs --show-blocked --tag f45 --quiet --package -- $(ls -1 rpm-specs/ | sed 's/.spec$//') | grep BLOCKED

On the spec files in the linked tarball, but I do get a handful of Bad Gateway errors, so the output won't be complete.

I checked for the above packages, and they are indeed retired in dist-git. I dont see any else, for now, we can reopen this if there are more.

The reported problem is that they are not retired in distgit. They have specf iles in rawhide branches, not dead.package files.
