I can build if other packages are available. Let me look.
Build without dependencies not in RHEL 8 or EPEl 8. $ rpm -i https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/updates/30/Everything/SRPMS/Packages/g/gparted-1.0.0-1.fc30.src.rpm $ vim rpmbuild/SPECS/gparted.spec # Comment out this line. (15) #BuildRequires: gnome-doc-utils $ rpmbuild -ba rpmbuild/SPECS/gparted.spec
Related bug. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1737996
gparted does not need gnome-doc-utils anymore. I will build this as soon as I can.

Works fine on RHEL 8. on RHEL 8.1 Beta, dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/playground/8/Everything/x86_64/os/Packages/g/gparted-1.0.0-4.epel8.playground.x86_64.rpm gives Error: Problem: conflicting requests - nothing provides PolicyKit-authentication-agent needed by gparted-1.0.0-4.epel8.playground.x86_64 (try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages) I cannot find PolicyKit-authentication-agent in RHEL 8 but gparted installs without errors. Wondering what is happening ? thanks.
RHEL 8.1 Beta issue solved. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1737160 this was preventing from installing EPEL 8 packages on RHEL 8.1 Beta. remade RPMs from fedora 30 and rawhide to fix https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1719830 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1726141 now able to install EPEL 8 and dnf install gparted works on RHEL 8.1 Beta. thanks.
gparted-1.0.0-4.el8 has been pushed to the Fedora EPEL 8 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
Above mentioned issue still persists I guess. Today I tried to install [epel8 stable repo] in RHEL 8. Same error Updating Subscription Management repositories. Last metadata expiration check: 0:00:17 ago on Wednesday 11 September 2019 11:43:40 PM IST. Error: Problem: conflicting requests - nothing provides PolicyKit-authentication-agent needed by gparted-1.0.0-4.el8.x86_64 (try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)
try dnf --enablerepo=epel-playground install gparted many dependencies are still in playground I guess. thanks.
