bwm-ng is available in EPEL7 but it is not available in EPEL8 and it would be a nice tool to have Notes: It is not present in RHEL8, so it could be added. Version from rawhide seems to build and work without issues
Hi! Yes, I use to be packager of bwm-ng and also recognized it's missing in EPEL-8. If the current packager team agrees, I'd be willing to take care about the EPEL-8 branch, but someone needs to add me to the maintainers (https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/bwm-ng) list, so I can request the epel-8 branch an build it. Pablo, in regards to your note, I don't see bwm-ng being added to RHEL-8 any time soon, but thanks for dropping the ask/question/idea! Oliver

Feel free to. I had already requested the branch yesterday: https://pagure.io/releng/fedora-scm-requests/issue/27241 I've added you as an admin to the project.
Please note that there is a new upstream release out (0.6.2) with some minor fixes. I've built it for rawhide yesterday.
Hey Sven, thanks for the quick reply and adding me to the list of maintainers. Glad you already requested the EPEL-8 branch. Once it's done, I'll take care about building for EPEL-8. I guess, we can quickly get this BZ "fixed". Oliver
Hi!, thanks for moving this so fast! Oliver: My comment about not being in RHEL was related to the fact that there was no conflict in adding it to EPEL, not that it could be added to RHEL, even my optimism has its limits ;) Thanks again! Pablo.
Pablo, ack, thanks for pointing that out. :-) Oliver
Scratch build running: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=48004719
Build finished (https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=48004719). @Pablo, would be great if you could try it out and give feedback if everything is working as expected! Thanks, Oliver
@Oliver, just tested in aarch64 and x86_64, all looks good! Thanks for doing this. Pablo.
Ack. Will try to build it for the real release now, but it seems we're currently having some issues, due to the mass rebuild for F33. Oliver
Oh. Now it's done. Will push Bodhi soon.
