Description Davide Cavalca 2021-11-10 23:51:24 UTC

Hi,

I am using CentOS Stream 8 and am using various packages in the EPEL[1] 
repository. I am interested in seeing pyelftools added to EPEL 8.

Would it be possible for you to maintain the package? While EPEL 
is more conservative in package maintenance[2][3], it does allow for
updates to later versions when needed.

I am happy to co-maintain (FAS: dcavalca); additionally, EPEL now has a packaging team[4] that can help co-maintain branches (FAS group: epel-packagers-sig), that can be added with either commit access or collaborator access to epel* branches (if it's not desired that they have access to the rawhide and f* branches).

The EPEL team appreciate your help with EPEL.

Thanks for your interest. I've requested epel8 branch:

https://pagure.io/releng/fedora-scm-requests/issue/37469

Can I add you as co-maintainer for Fedora as well, or just the epel8 branch?

Comment 2 Davide Cavalca 2021-11-11 15:49:48 UTC

Sure, happy to help with Fedora as well if you'd like. Thanks!

Done and done. I gave you admin privileges, so feel free to add epel-packagers-sig if you like, too.
