Description Brian J. Murrell 2023-06-01 17:52:02 UTC 
Description of problem:
python-avocado seems to be missing from EPEL 9.

It would be nice to be able to install python-avocado from RPMs on EL9.

Working on it.
Comment 2 Cleber Rosa 2023-07-17 19:07:32 UTC 
Requested the epel9 branch in https://pagure.io/releng/fedora-scm-requests/issue/54609
Comment 3 Cleber Rosa 2023-07-17 19:13:51 UTC 
Brian,

Not a guarantee that this will be followed, but, would you rather see 92.x (LTS) or the upcoming 103.0 (also LTS) on EPEL9?

For some comparison and context, previous EPEL releases had the current LTS versions, example:

Fedora EPEL 8	python-avocado-82.0-2.el8	
Fedora EPEL 7	python-avocado-69.2-1.el7

Naturally EPEL 9 would receive 92.x, but upstream is on the verge (couple of weeks) to release 103.0.

Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks.

Hi @crosa.

TBH, I am not sure I care.  I suppose whatever gets Avocado into EPEL9 the most expediently is what I would choose.

Any progress on this?
Comment 7 Cleber Rosa 2023-10-05 16:43:18 UTC 
Hi Brian,

We made the strategic decision to package the newer LTS (to be released soon) in EPEL9.  The ETA is about 2-3 weeks.  The packages on EPEL will be available right after that.
