Description Panos Asproulis 2022-05-27 17:27:46 UTC
Please, branch and build package “freeimage” for EPEL9

Comment 1 Richard Shaw 2022-05-29 12:59:11 UTC
Would you like to own the EL branch here as well? :)

Comment 2 Panos Asproulis 2022-05-29 13:34:13 UTC
I wish I had the time. What is happening with EPEL and people are leaving it?

Comment 3 Richard Shaw 2022-06-02 02:56:42 UTC
Hard to sum up, but it's a bit of a mess. CentOS 8 was EOL'd early after RH took it over (there's still CentOS 8 Stream), and now EL 9, and which do we built against? RHEL or CentOS? Rocky? And even previous to that RH stopped shipping most -devel packages, so even if the package already exists the -devel package you need may not be available. And lots of stuff I'm glossing over :)

Comment 4 Richard Shaw 2022-06-03 02:39:10 UTC
So this commit should be applied to all branches? From the commit this doesn't appear to be el8 specific...

Comment 5 Richard Shaw 2022-06-03 02:39:52 UTC
Wrong BZ... sorry.

Comment 6 Panos Asproulis 2022-06-29 18:04:30 UTC
Is there any progress on this?

Comment 7 Debarshi Ray 2023-10-19 13:50:16 UTC
A epel9 branch was requested:
https://pagure.io/releng/fedora-scm-requests/issue/45889

... which now exists:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/freeimage/commits/epel9

... and freeimage-3.19.0-0.11.svn1889.el9 was built for EPEL9:
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=2092941

So, this can be CLOSED now?
