Comment 1 Carl George 🎩 2024-10-15 00:59:46 UTC 
If the solution to this is to add additional packages to EPEL 10, but you don't have access to add them yourself, please follow the request process in the EPEL documentation.  Once you have filed the corresponding bugs, please mark them as blocking this bug.

https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/epel/epel-package-request/

If you think resolving this will take a long time, and would prefer to remove this uninstallable package from EPEL 10 in the meantime, just say so in this ticket and I can untag the build for you.  This won't retire the branch, so as soon as the underlying problem is resolved you can re-publish by creating a new update.
Comment 2 Orion Poplawski 2024-10-16 03:28:32 UTC 
I've filed a branch request for tcp_wrappers.
Comment 3 Xavier Bachelot 2024-10-16 21:41:04 UTC 
I was about to look at providing a PR to drop this particular sub-package of fail2ban, since I believe tcp_wrappers was deprecated for a long time, when I found out that tcp_wrappers is still in the distribution and there was already a branch request for it.
I'll comment on the tcp_wrappers epel10 branch request.
