Description Stefan Neufeind 2025-10-21 12:02:12 UTC

jemalloc is packaged in the EPEL 10.1/10.2-repos. But could you please also add it for 10.0 / 10z (like for RHEL 10; for the non-stream distros)? It's needed by other commonly used packages like varnish (packaged by their authors). Manually picking the version built for 10.1 works as a workaround, but adding it to 10z-repos would be great.

Comment 2 Ingvar Hagelund 2026-02-12 15:44:47 UTC

Unfortunately, this is not possible. EPEL-10.0 is retired, so though RHEL-10.0 is still supported by Red Hat, there will be no new packages built for it, and I will not be able to push a jemalloc package for it now. To get packages for your current RHEL, that is RHEL-10.1, the current jemalloc epel package should be up to date. EPEL packages without a minor ("EPEL10") is for Centos Stream 10.

IIRC, the packages are built like this:

EPEL10   is built against CentOS Stream 10 (continously)
EPEL10.0 is built against RHEL-10.0 (epel minor retired)
EPEL10.1 is built against RHEL-10.1 (current)
etc

For some details on the policy on retiring minor epel releases, see for example https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/upcoming-epel-10-0-retirement/171810/2
