Package Change Request ====================== Package Name: blt New Branches: EPEL7
If you are not a packager, don't file these nonsensical bugs.
Lets try and be more polite and helpful than that please. If you aren't a packager and would simply like this package in epel7, please file a bug against that package asking the maintainer if they would be willing to do so. I've moved your bug over to the right place...
Does EPEL7 require seperate request as blt *is* in EPEL6 already?
Yes. Packages in epel6 are not automatically branched for epel7. Its up to the maintainer(s).
Certainly didn't mean for the request to be nonsense, I was trying to follow the protocol outlined here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_SCM_admin_requests#Package_Change_Requests_for_existing_packages I opened this ticket as I was unable to locate a review ticket for the blt package. Kevin, thank you for interpreting my intent, and moving the request where it needed to go.
> I was trying to follow the protocol outlined here This package has a maintainer. If you want to become a co-maintainer, contact the first one. Mentioned protocol is for maintainers one. > I opened this ticket as I was unable to locate a review ticket for the blt package https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=456368 PS May be rename the Title of this reauest as well?
I'm not interested in a EL7 branch. Anyway, you should ask the owner of the package

Anyway, I have CentOS machines in my disposal *now*, so I could take epel vertions as comaintainer too (again: *now*). If you don't mind.
Kevin, is it OK with #456368? I mean, Kyle's request.
If you want to go ahead and branch for epel7 and maintain it, just repeat Kyles request here and add a fedora-cvs: ? flag to bring it to the attention of cvs admins.
I just want to wait for a epel6 rights to be granted. And, next, make a scm request. The question above is about was that request correct or not. Suppose - not.
