Stephen, thank you for helping me to a better understanding. Since yesterday I read up about EPEL usage with RHEL and now i think i have a better grasp of this.
If i got it right, to do a "yum install reviewboard" with more up to date RB-versions it would be feasible to wait a bit until i can get my hands on an RHEL8 machine, get the EPEL configured (epel-release-latest-8 <https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm>), regularly check for good news concerning RB via EPEL and upon arrival be happily installing via yum (not that i am not happy already, having realized once more what an amount of time you pour into this!) So thank you once more and now i am back in lurkmode :) Am Dienstag, 20.
