I heard the clamav guys are considering adding re2 as an optional dependency for clamav. re2 seems to be available for EPEL5 and EPEL6, but not for EPEL7. re2 for EPEL7 would be needed when a clamav that uses re2 is eventually released.
Ok, I have added the package to the EPEL 7 wish list: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/epel7/Requests
The built has successfully completed: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=7407270
FEDORA-EPEL-2019-6df6efa695 has been submitted as an update to Fedora EPEL 7. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2019-6df6efa695
re2-20190801-1.el7 has been pushed to the Fedora EPEL 7 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Updates_Testing for instructions on how to install test updates. You can provide feedback for this update here: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2019-6df6efa695
Did you check for any ABI breakage? Not sure if I'd give negative karma for the epel7 branch as already done for the updates in both F29 and F30 considered to be kept as stable. BTW There's already a package in epel7, asking former committer spot what he thinks: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2016-d8f84c6912 Though, I think it's okayish to have it as a new el8 tagged package in the relatively new branch epel8.

No, actually, I did not check, as I did not know about the other package. My bad. Up to you to downvote it (as you are right, it may break other packages). Help is welcome for testing with those packages.
For depenencies, try with: repoquery --requires --resolve --recursive re2 You may need to install the package yum-utils. https://www.thegeekdiary.com/how-to-use-repoquery-command-to-list-package-dependencies/ In my opinion, we should delay this update till all dependencies are checked.
Sorry, try with: repoquery --whatrequires --recursive re2 Or: repoquery --tree-whatrequires --recursive re2 Output is a very long list, so we'd not post it in this bug. (Got confused now, too.)

Thanks, I'll do that (have a build-root with the new RE2 and re-build the packages depending on RE2); should have done it before.
