OpenMandriva: Statement regarding attempted distribution sabotage

Over on the by a disgruntled contributor with
administrative credentials. According to "AngryPenguin", an abusive
incident in a distribution Matrix chat led to a user being kicked out of
the chat; that "triggered a cascade of events", which led to people
resigning from the distribution. Eventually, one of those people used
their administrative privileges to delete part of the distribution's GitHub
repository and to "publish an empty package in the cooker
repository, which obsoleted all gnome and cosmic packages, which could have
damaged the systems of people using gnome or cosmic".

We are currently working to restore the deleted repositories and restore
the functionality of the obsolete packages.

[...] We performed a full system audit and, aside from the removed
packages, we found no other violations.
