Description Jonathan Wright 2023-01-02 20:54:23 UTC
Hi,

In 2095993 qpdf was added to crb which is great but we also need the -devel package.  It is currently blocking python-pikepdf in EPEL9 which in turn blocks python-pandas which is a very important package.

Comment 2 Zdenek Dohnal 2023-01-03 14:39:20 UTC
I propose moving qpdf-devel RPM from buildroot into public CRB repository for the following reasons:

- qpdf-devel is requested by community and the RPM was in previous RHELs and CentOS, so it would be great if the RPM was available publicly as unsupported to keep the functionality in RHEL/CentOS Stream

- no new packages are introduced into public RHEL/CentOS Stream, because the RPM was in buildroot already, and none of its deps has to move with it to CRB, so there is no impact on other teams

- packages in CRB are unsupported, so there is no requirement for migration support between RHELs, no compatibility assurance and no additional tests have to implemented

- the RHEL package - cups-filters - which requires qpdf-devel does it only during build time and the package is in AppStream, so no change for it either

Petr, can you review the request and give qa_ack?

Adding pdancak into CC as well.

I've filed the necessary ticket and submitted PR https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/release-engineering/comps/-/merge_requests/298 , once the PR is merged and the ticket solved, I'll do the build.

Comment 10 Romain Geissler 2023-01-23 18:34:19 UTC
Checking right now, it seems qpdf-devel is available in CentOS Stream 9, but not yet in RHEL 9. So we still have to wait a bit that it reaches RHEL.

Comment 11 Zdenek Dohnal 2023-01-24 08:02:23 UTC
Yep, the package will reach RHEL once this bug is closed as ERRATA. For now it is in CentOS Stream.
