Hi, Ansible is being removed from RHEL Extras 7 so it has been pushed back into EPEL 7. Thanks for your concern. Ansible was just added in August 2017 to Extras [1]. Can you point to the update announcing the discontinuation of this? [1] https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHEA-2017:2366 Thanks, -AJ Looks like the announcement was held up by the holidays. Should be out soon. |
Description of problem: EPEL is continuing to ship an 'ansible' package for EPEL7 even though an official Red Hat package is shipped in the Extras channel. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.4.2.0-1el7 How reproducible: `yum install ansible` on a system with EPEL repository and rhel-7-server-extras channel enabled, and yum will choose epel's 2.4.2.0-1el7 package instead of 2.4.1.0-1el7 from extras (as of 2018-01-09). Actual results: My understanding of EPEL's guidelines is that this should not be the case ("Thus packages from EPEL should never replace packages from the target base distribution"), since the Extras channel is listed as one that EPEL is built against. Expected results: EPEL should continue to ship releases for el6, but not for el7.
