Description andrea 2016-04-25 09:31:49 UTC
csync2 is missing from epel7 repo while it is present on el6

http://oss.linbit.com/csync2/

this tool is very usefull and common to make filesystem synchronization in cloud environment 

while on fedora it is present on the main repo, on centos 7 is missing

it would be great if ported on epel7

it could be also ported without xinetd dependency (like on fedora23) and integrated with systemd

it's work fine. A simple unit file:

[Unit]
Description=csync2 server daemon
Documentation=man:csync2(8)
After=network.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/csync2 -ii
ExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID
KillMode=process

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Any chance to get this for EPEL7?

Would be appreciated! Is there anything we can help with to get cync2 into EPEL7?

This message is a reminder that EPEL 6 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for EPEL 6 on 2020-11-30. It is our policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a 'version' of 'el6'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later EPEL version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before EPEL 6 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

EPEL el6 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2020-11-30. EPEL el6 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no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further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
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.
