Copr just uses `mock-core-configs` package, and the `epel-*.cfg` files there. I believe that anyone who will need to do local builds (including Fedora Copr) will be able to get the appropriate subscription [1], and so we'll be able to change the epel-8 config from centos+epel to rhel+epel in mock-core-configs. Btw. there already are some `rhelepel-*` configs (feel free to try them, as that's what will be in epel-*, see also [2]). I also believe that we'll be able to have some subscription for Fedora Copr builders that will allow us to continue using mock-core-configs in default variant. Cross-arch builds (--forcearch) will stop working till bz#1912847 is fixed, and this would affect Copr. > BTW, I assume that EPEL stuff are build on RHEL.

I thought that this is normal situation (8.4 release is fresh), and that CentOS 8 is supported till the end of this year - so please correct me if I'm wrong but CentOS 8 should still get the 8.4 update?
