I'd like to use centpkg-minimal in Fedora's Copr, but it is only available in the Koji buidlroot of c9s, not in the CRB repo. Could you please make it available in CRB as well? Version-Release number of selected component: 2.1.0-2.cs9 https://kojihub.stream.centos.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1 Thanks
centpkg-minimal is intended for infrastructure purposes only, It doesn't really make sense to include it in any of the 'proper' RHEL repos. If we included this in EPEL, would that help?
Yes, including it in EPEL 9 would help.
Miro, is centpkg-minimal still needed? Or has centpkg and/or centpkg-sig filled the need?
What I'd like to do is to be able to build SRPMs in pure c9s coprs. I can enable EPEL and EPEL Next and use the full-blown centpkg package, but it makes the builds *slightly* slower, as it pulls in a lot of unneeded cruft. I'd still prefer to have centpkg-minimal in c9s CRB or et least in EPEL, but it's not the top priority for me. BTW In my worldview, it actually makes sense to maintain centpkg-minimal in c9s distgit instead of building it directly from SRPMs from who-knows-where, but I am not maintaining this, so it's not up to me.
We've been burned by this again in c10s. Our integration tests for Feodra use fedpkg-minimal but we need to use centpkg-minimal in c10s. For now, we'll install it from Koji directly. But it's not convenient. Please let me know if you are going to do this or not. It has been open for ~3 years.
You know what, let's do this. I'm the current centpkg maintainer, or at least the one who builds it in all the supported repos, I'll get it into epel. At least epel9 and epel10. Here's one question. Does this need to be epel only? Or should it be in Fedora as well, just like fedpkg-minimal? I can't think of a single reason why it would need to be in Fedora, but before this bug, I couldn't think of a reason why it would need to be in EPEL.
I'd say let's add it to Fedora. No reason not to do it. We can then even use it from a Fedora machine to fetch centpkg sources. One thing we realized today (when using centpkg-minimal from centos stream koji) is that it uses the sources.stream.rdu2.redhat.com internal Red Hat address. I suppose we want to use sources.stream.centos.org instead when we package this. It's for fetching only anyway. I'd be happy to do the package review.
