Description Davide Cavalca 2022-02-24 19:05:21 UTC
Please branch and build libmpeg2 in epel8.

If you do not wish to maintain libmpeg2 in epel8,
or do not think you will be able to do this in a timely manner,
the EPEL Packagers SIG would be happy to be a co-maintainer of the package;
please add the epel-packagers-sig group through
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/libmpeg2/addgroup
and grant it commit access, or collaborator access on epel* branches.

Comment 1 Yaakov Selkowitz 2022-02-24 20:23:12 UTC
libmpeg2 is already in RPMFusion for EL8.  While it could be added to EPEL8 proper, I'm not sure what benefit there would be at this point, and it would need to be coordinated  with them to avoid conflicts.

Comment 2 Yaakov Selkowitz 2022-03-02 18:56:35 UTC
Discussed at EPEL office hours today, will proceed accordingly.

Comment 6 Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2022-05-04 18:40:54 UTC
Can you make an epel9 (and eventually an epel7) branches for this package.

Comment 7 Yaakov Selkowitz 2022-05-04 19:14:19 UTC
libmpeg2 is already in RHEL 9 as a dependency of gstreamer1-plugins-ugly-free.  While the -devel package seems not to be shipped, you could try requesting it be added to CRB.

As for EPEL 7, is it really worth the effort to import it at this point?

Comment 8 Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2022-05-04 19:20:22 UTC
Okay, thanks for the notice.

I'm not happy with going with CRB, so I will just build it in override for rpmfusion contributors/users.
