This package is required for python-acme (bug 1774668). Without this package we can not get certbot (Let's Encrypt) in EPEL 8 (bug 1744892). If you are not interested in maintaining this in EPEL 8 please let me know so we can find a solution.
Btw: I should note that a mockbuild for EPEL8 just passed without any issues so it should be very easy to build this for EPEL 8! Pretty please?
I am not interested in maintaining this in EPEL 8. However, I can add you as admin, if you commit to do that.
In fact, I can give the package to you entirely, if you'd like. Can hang around as a co-maintainer for a while.
Ok, can do (though I'm not too keen to maintain even more packages). Was about to submit a pull request to fix the test running without changing the spec file but if I can commit that directly - even better. Let's Encrypt FTW.

Done.
