Description François Poirotte 2025-08-26 09:11:23 UTC
Hello,

I would like to use bear on CentOS Stream 10 and noticed it isn't included in EPEL anymore.

The package builds fine on Fedora Rawhide (see https://koschei.fedoraproject.org/package/bear?collection=f44).
Please include it in EPEL 10.

Best regards,
François

Since EPEL10.1 branching just happened, you’re probably asking for EPEL10, EPEL10.1, and EPEL10.0.

I’m not interested in maintaining this in EPEL (I’m not the primary maintainer or an active co-maintainer of the bear package, and salimma is the EPEL bug assignee – weirdly, despite not being an official maintainer of the package), but I did a quick test and confirmed that "fedpkg --release epel10 mockbuild -- --postinstall" would succeed just fine using the current contents of the Rawhide branch, so I don’t see any real obstacles.
