I sent you an email saying that I gave you maintainer access some time ago, but in case you didn't see it I mentioning it here.

(In reply to pouar from comment #1) > I sent you an email saying that I gave you maintainer access some time ago, > but in case you didn't see it I mentioning it here. I noticed you didn't make any commits so I'm guessing you didn't see the reply to the email I sent when you requested access Thank you for updates. actually I noticed your action but I couldn't make a request for branching because it was shipped in as a part of RHEL8 but some sub packages wasn't. it seems that this may needs to be done as a module. What needs to happen is that someone needs to make a separate EPEL-only source package which produces the missing python3-brotli package. This can all be accomplished without involving modules. Aha. that might be an option indeed. but it may breaks something easily and has to be done very carefully, or need a support on the infrastructure to avoid such situation. otherwise it may be quite risky. python3-brotli is part of the RHEL 8 spec file. https://git.centos.org/rpms/brotli/blob/c8/f/SPECS/brotli.spec#_45-56 For whatever reason Red Hat isn't providing that subpackage in the repos. Lets at least ask Red Hat first before trying to do it in EPEL. I'm trying to change the product on this bug to RHEL, but it doesn't seem to be working... Hello Tomas and LumÃr, I set needsinfo for y'all on this bug because for some reason bugzilla isn't letting me change the product of this to RHEL to get your feedback. Would it be possible for RHEL 8 to include the python3-brotli subpackage? It's not disabled in the spec file, but I don't see it available in any RHEL 8 repo. python3-brotli package is contained only in RHEL8 buildroot repository and therefore it isn't visible automatically. It should not be hard to request its inclusion also to distribution repositories because it depends only on Python 3. It's up to the main admins whether they want to maintain the subpackage. (In reply to LumÃr Balhar from comment #8) > It's up to the main admins whether they want to maintain the subpackage. And that's Eike (CC'ing him) If someone could enlighten me what exactly is expected from me here? I mean, yes I can maintain it, but what would I need to do now? Eike, EPEL maintainers would like to be able to use the python3-brotli package. It's part of the brotli spec file, but it is not included in the RHEL 8 repositories. I've heard this referred to as a "buildroot-only package". How do we go about including that package in the repositories? Eike, the process is described in the RHEL 8 Developer guide. What you have to do: "To move non-modular content from one repository to another, please create a clone of the AppStream/BaseOS request ticket [0] and fill in the appropriate information. We will evaluate your request and ensure that all of the various package dependencies and teams are aligned and then help you move the content from one stream to the other."

I have a requirement for python3-brotli to be in EPEL8. Thank you I just kinda assumed Eike Rathke was going to do something about it, considering he got assigned to it and set the target release to 8.2. Was I wrong? This got stuck when I could not find QE lead with capacity to test EPEL, after which I retargeted to rhel-8.2 Hello, may I just ask what's the state here? *** Bug 1845954 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** The target release of this bug has been set to 8.3.
