This package is being added to RHEL 8.7 at the next minor release. Please remove it from epel after the next RHEL minor release.
Hello Mark Huth ... do I understand that right you are the new packager of yara for RHEL8/9? Is it the right time to remove the package from EPEL? Having access to some RHEL8 box I have tried to install the yara from the upstream, but I failed and was not able to install it. Please how do I check where/whether the package is already there and in what version? Thank you Michal Ambroz
yara has not been released in RHEL 8 yet. Looking at the second comment it says it will come out with RHEL 8.7. RHEL 8.7 will come out 6 months after RHEL 8.6, so sometime in November. Thank you for taking this seriously, but please wait a little longer before removing yara.
RHEL-8.7 has been released on the 9th of November and I can see yara in the `rhel-8-for-x86_64-appstream-rpms` repo. # dnf info yara Updating Subscription Management repositories.
