Please branch and build rust-rav1e in epel9. If you do not wish to maintain rust-rav1e in epel9, or do not think you will be able to do this in a timely manner, the EPEL Packagers SIG would be happy to be a co-maintainer of the package; please add the epel-packagers-sig group through https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/rust-rav1e/addgroup and grant it commit access, or collaborator access on epel* branches.
I can try to do this. But the Rust packages in EPEL9 are kind of in disrepair since Igor stopped merging updates from the Fedora branches. I'll look into figuring out what needs to be updated and/or added on EPEL9 for rav1e ... and I'll probably also need to figure out a list of Rust crates which I need to update in EPEL9 in when I update them in Fedora. Fun.
There's plenty of time for this, I'm basically trying to prep for introducing ffmpeg into EPEL in November after RHEL 9.1 releases. So your help is greatly appreciated!
You'll probably have to start with updating rust-packaging in EPEL 9. It's currently rust-packaging-19-4.el9. The new rust2rpm generates "BuildRequires: rust-packaging >= 21".
I can't update rust-packaging to v21+ on EPEL9 because rust-srpm-macros in RHEL 9 is stuck at v17. Any idea what I can do about that?

Did we change the srpm macros between 17 to 21? If not, then it should work okay with some finagling. If so, then let's get it updated in CentOS Stream 9 and add some shims to epel-rpm-macros to deal with the difference until the update lands.
Hum. Looks like the macros in macros.rust-srpm haven't changed since 2019, so I think we should be fine. I'll just need to relax the dependency in rust-packaging from = %{version} to >= 17.
Blergh. I can't update rust-packaging to match Fedora (v22) because that version started using match expressions, which were added with Python 3.10, and RHEL 9 "only" has Python 3.9. But I can update to v21 plus all the patches that we need, I think ...
For completeness, we do have rust-packaging 21 now (thanks Fabio!) I'm doing a big update with 100+ new crates soon for bringing an unrelated project (retsnoop), will do some checks to see how many of those dependencies are shared with rav1e (i.e. computing the missing deps now, computing again after that update has landed and see how many we shaved off).
Taking this since I'm chomping through the dependencies now
