Well, I was curious and took a closer look. Actually I compared 5Server + EPEL against Fedora 8 and not FE6, which makes EPEL even look worse. When looking at the source rpms I get this result (rough estimate which may contain a few packages detected wrongly, but should be good enough): $ wc -l rhel epel fedora8 1085 rhel 819 epel 4803 fedora8 I ran "grep -v" over it and uploaded the list of packages that are in Fedora but not in EPEL to: http://www.leemhuis.info/files/fedorarpms/MISC.fdr/missing-in-epel 2986 packages ;-) Some of them would be nice to have. Just took a quick look at saw for example: abiword, airsnort, alpine, amarok, audacious, bluefish, [...], ipw*-firmware, [...], 527 different packages starting with perl, 69 starting with python, [...], xfce*, [...] Note that a part of those 2986 packages are not interesting for EPEL; those 31 hunspell dictionaries for example.
