Thanks. I've tried building the srpm but it appears to require texinfo which isn't available on Redhat 8.
[root@dev27-rhel8 rpmbuild]# dnf install perl-generators texinfo Updating Subscription Management repositories. Unable to read consumer identity This system is not registered to Red Hat Subscription Management. You can use subscription-manager to register. Last metadata expiration check: 0:03:40 ago on Fri 21 Jun 2019 09:43:25 AM EDT. No match for argument: texinfo Error: Unable to find a match I tried commenting out the BuildRequires: texinfo line however the build still fails due to a missing "makeinfo" command. The texinfo srpm also requires several dependencies which aren't available in the RHEL 8 repos provided on the DVD. Is there a way that you could make koji build the cvs package along with the dependencies needed?
