I don't look in Fedora as much, but I definitely do see it in EPEL, and I appreciate it. Second off, love your list of missing devel and how many Fedora packages require them. That really helps give a good perspective. Third, and perhaps most important, we have a process to fix missing -devel packages that affect us.[1] I'm in the middle of making it it's own page, along with examples and so forth. But here's a summary. - Short Term: Create an <package>-epel EPEL package that only has the missing packages. - Long Term: Request the package be added to RHEL 8 and 9 CRB repository. Go to the the EPEL web page[1] for more details. Again, a better page is coming. Also, look in epel8 or epel9 to see if some of those missing -devel packages are already there. For example, gsl-devel in epel9 is already there, because someone has already started the process.[2] [1] - https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/epel/epel-faq/#rhel_8_has_binaries_in_the_release_but_is_missing_some_corresponding__devel_package._how_do_i_build_a_package_that_needs_that_missing__devel_package [2] - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2035401 Troy
