Comment 1 Daniel Berrangé 2016-03-18 10:17:08 UTC 
Personally I do not invest any time in maintaniing EPEL branches for any packages I maintain, since I don't want to commit to long term support of them. So if yajl is desired in EPEL it'll need a co-maintainer to volunteer
Comment 2 yopito 2016-03-18 10:53:18 UTC 
This is needed specifically for EPEL5, since RHEL6 and RHEL7 provides yajl packages.
If no one wish to maintain, I could offer my help to (co)maintain the EPEL5 version of yajl.
But I'm a newbie in the Fedora world at this point, without any specific roles assigned yet.
Comment 3 Fedora End Of Life 2017-04-06 10:06:04 UTC 
Fedora EPEL 5 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-03-31. Fedora EPEL 5
is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora
or Fedora EPEL, please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If
you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current
release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
