From the name I would expect it to, but reading that doc makes me think %generate_buildrequires *is* python specific. If so, the name is misleading. (I am also confused/suspicious of the point of a macro to automate build requires, except as a step on a path to somewhere else. If build requirements need to be stated explicitly, then automating their statement is a good way of hiding an issue that needs to be reviewed whenever changes are made. ) -- Andrew C.

How to support python 3.8 from RHEL 8.2 in EPEL?
by Orion Poplawski 04 Mar '22

04 Mar '22

Folks - Looks like RHEL 8.2 will have python 3.8 in addition to python 3.6. From the 8.2 beta: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 for x86_64 - AppStream Beta (RPMs) Name Stream Profiles Summary python27 2.7 [d][e] common [d] Python programming language, version 2.7 python36 3.6 [d][e] build, common [d] Python programming language, version 3.6 python38 3.8 [d][e] build, common [d] Python programming language, version 3.8 Currently, %python_pkgversion is set to 3 in /usr/lib/rpm/macros.d/macros.python-srpm from python-srpm-macros. python3-devel is still provided only by python36-devel, so presumably all EPEL8 python packages will continue to be built against python 3.6. But I imagine that people will soon be asking for python 3.8 versions of EPEL packages. How can we provide those? Does this have to be done in some modular fashion - which seems to come back to the discussion of whether or not every package has to become its own module or whether to group them together somehow. Or since both python modules are "default" modules and we can install both python36-devel and python38-devel at the same time, perhaps we can define the python3_other* macros again for python38 and just go that way? Thoughts? -- Orion Poplawski Manager of NWRA Technical Systems 720-772-5637 NWRA, Boulder/CoRA Office FAX: 303-415-9702 3380 Mitchell Lane orion(a)nwra.com Boulder, CO 80301 https://www.nwra.com/

Hi all, I have a COPR containing xfce 4.16 packages for EPEL-8 packages [0]. I would like to get some testing done using this COPR before getting into EPEL-8. Please email if and when you notice problems and I will try to fix it as soon as possible. As a reminder - xfce 4.16 will be available in F34. Thanks, Mukundan.

gcc-gnat
by Erick Wittman 18 Jul '21

18 Jul '21

Hi EPEL developers. I am using CentOS 8 and am using various packages in the EPEL repository. I am interested in seeing gcc-gnat added to EPEL. I cannot find a current Fedora maintainer listed for this package, but it is available in Fedora (at least in version 32). Are there any EPEL maintainers who are interested in creating an EPEL version of this package? Thank you
