Description Robert Scheck 2022-07-10 14:51:26 UTC
Description of problem:
Please build rabbitmq-server for EPEL 9.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rabbitmq-server-3.9.10-1.fc36

Actual results:
No rabbitmq-server in EPEL 9.

Expected results:
rabbitmq-server-3.9.10-1.el9 or better ;-)

Additional info:
Please let me know if you are a) not interested in maintaining the package on EPEL 9 branch or b) if you guess this could end similar here like the stale bug #1752946 for EPEL 8.

Hello,

Is this version of rabbitmq-server still needed?

Comment 2 Robert Scheck 2022-08-31 20:01:17 UTC
I don't get the question regarding "this version". I still need rabbitmq-server, and preferably a current rather than an ancient version - but not any specific version.

Comment 3 Robby Callicotte 2022-09-03 18:11:11 UTC
I used a poor choice of words... I should have said "this branch"...  I am a bit confused as to where a new rabbitmq build should live.  I see that the Messaging SIG has previously packaged it (Peter Lemenkov is listed as a member of the SIG), but there has been no response.  I will start a convo on the EPEL mailing list and the CentOS-devel list to get some answers.

Comment 4 Richard Shaw 2022-09-06 12:15:53 UTC
For posterity as it was discussed on the mailing list, there are some missing dependencies and they have some as well...

No matching package to install: 'elixir'
No matching package to install: 'erlang >= 23'

Comment 5 Peter Lemenkov 2026-03-04 10:53:11 UTC
I unfortunately don't have the bandwidth to maintain rabbitmq-server in EPEL 9. However, I can grant access to an EPEL maintainer who's willing to step in. If you're interested, please let me know and I'll add you in Pagure.

Comment 6 Peter Lemenkov 2026-03-25 21:29:30 UTC
RabbitMQ is now available for all EL9 derivatives (CentOS Stream 9, AlmaLinux 9, Rocky Linux 9, RHEL 9) via the CentOS Messaging SIG. To install:

dnf install centos-release-messaging
dnf install rabbitmq-server

This provides RabbitMQ 4.x with the full Erlang/OTP stack (erlang, elixir, wxGTK). The centos-release-messaging package is available in the extras repository of AlmaLinux and Rocky Linux, so it works out of the box on all major EL9 distributions.

Building RabbitMQ in EPEL would duplicate the Messaging SIG effort and create potential conflicts. Closing in favor of the SIG.
