To be a bit more fair, we have not blindly added all buildroot content to RHEL. However, we have made progress on coming up with a way to request these packages be added and worked to help teams internally understand the implications of this. We continue to add content to every RHEL minor release. That's not nothing. It's just not everything. josh _______________________________________________ epel-devel mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected] Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
