Description Brenton Leanhardt 2021-06-15 16:08:40 UTC
Description of problem:

Somehow python-greenlet was associated with sst_openshift.  We do not use that package as best we can tell.  In RHEL 8 it was in CRB and AppStream however 9 currently has it only in CRB.  I would suggest removing it unless an owner is found.

Comment 1 Alfredo Moralejo 2021-09-02 10:17:28 UTC
openstack is requiring greenlet >= 1.0.0 to update sqlalchemy. What's the plan for greenlet in CentOS9?, remove it from OS repos, to keep it as is or rebase it?

Comment 2 Nils Philippsen 2022-02-14 16:43:08 UTC
I'd like to raise this again.

According to Josh Boyer[1], python-greenlet is likely to be removed from RHEL9/CentOS Stream 9, which would let us add it to EPEL9 and update it there. Is there an ETA for a decision, removal? Right now this is blocking inclusion of python-sqlalchemy in EPEL9 because the version of python-greenlet in EL9 is buggy[2].

Comment 3 Brian Stinson 2022-02-23 01:44:23 UTC
This has been removed from RHEL 9. The EPEL request for python-greenlet should continue now.
