Hello, There is a need, for ppc64le arch, to have protobuf epel7 to be updated to the 2.6.1 version. Please, could you update protobuf. Thanks in advance.
Since RHEL7.2 protobuf and protobuf-c is part of RHEL: $ python is_it_in_rhel.py protobuf protobuf is not in RHEL 5 protobuf is not in RHEL 6 protobuf is in RHEL 7; version: 2.5.0; archs: i686, x86_64 $ python is_it_in_rhel.py protobuf-c protobuf-c is not in RHEL 5 protobuf-c is not in RHEL 6 protobuf-c is in RHEL 7; version: 1.0.2; archs: i686, x86_64 Unfortunately not PPC64LE.
I got the same answer as you with the is_it_in_rhel.py script. This script seems to retrieve its information from https://infrastructure.fedoraproject.org/repo/json/pkg_el{rel}.json files. The https://infrastructure.fedoraproject.org/repo/json/pkg_el7.json file contains the protobuf and protobuf-c packages but not related to the ppc64le arch. However when looking at https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/7/ppc64le/p/ protobuf and protobuf-c packages are available for ppc64le at versions 2.5.0 (needs upgrade to 2.6.1) and 1.0.1: protobuf-2.5.0-7.el7.ppc64le.rpm 2015-12-05 02:56 323K protobuf-c-1.0.1-1.el7.ppc64le.rpm 2015-12-05 05:34 101K Not sure if the json file is up to date regarding ppc64le packages.
This should be reassigned to RHEL since it's a part of RHEL now.
