Comment 1 Kaleb KEITHLEY 2024-11-07 12:40:00 UTC

Orion Poplawski built this for epel8. (I thought I needed it in epel10 for Ceph, but so far that hasn't turned out to be true.)

I think Orion is the right person to fix epel8. ???

python3-matplotlib is installable from EPEL 8.  The libqhull dependency is in the CRB repo.
