Description Simon J Mudd 2024-04-26 09:50:44 UTC

Description of problem:

innotop is available in EPEL for CentOS 7/8 but not for CentOS 9 stream.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

1.13.0-1.el8

How reproducible:

search EPEL repo for innotop and don't find it for EPEL9.

e.g.  https://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=innotop

Steps to Reproduce:

Search for package. Unable to find it.

Actual results:


Expected results:

innotop rpm available in EPEL9 repo.


Additional info:

Thanks for considering this. Moving away from older CentOS versions make this visible.  Providing the same package in the EPEL9 repo would be good.

I pulled down the fc40 src rpm and tried to build from that. I notice some BuildRequires: and Requires: entries seem to be missing so made this patch which builds and works:

This was tested against OL9 but I'd expect CentOS 9 will work too.
I'd rather not have to maintain a dedicated fork to the "upstream" version which I consider this to be.
I also haven't double checked if the additional entries will work with other EPEL versions as this was just a first step in trying to solve the problem.

So please consider adding these extra entries possibly for EL9 only.
