Please build botan for EPEL 8
Are you referring to Botan 1.X (package botan) or Botan 2.X (package botan2)? Note that Botan 1.X is EOL'ed, and I would rather not build it for EPEL8.
Please build Botan 2.X
After fixing two small issues, a scratch build of current rawhide version for botan2 for EPEL8 succeeded. Benjamin, would you mind me requesting the EPEL8 branches?
No of course not. Go ahead.
