Please branch and build coccinelle in epel9.

It is already available in epel8 and epel7.

Possible dupe of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2030779

Comment 2 Martin.Oliveira 2023-04-06 18:25:54 UTC
Hmm sorry I missed the duplicate.

Fortunately, I think the comments there about missing dependencies no longer apply.

I was able to build coccinelle from source on rhel9 using just the required dependencies which are available in the repos:
 - pkgconfig
 - chrpath
 - ocaml
 - ocaml-findlib
 - ocaml-findlib-devel
 - ocaml-ocamldoc

ocaml-menhir and ocaml-pcre-devel are the two other listed dependencies, but those are optional. Coccinelle includes copies of those libraries under bundles/ and uses those if it can't find them in the system.
