vince, the el8 rpm worked just fine for me when i tested on a centos8 system.
however, it is quite possible that my centos8 was not as much of a virgin as david's centos8 it should not matter whether we build the rpm packages on centos7 or centos8 the spec file defines these deps for el8: %define deps python3, python3-setuptools, python3-configobj, python3-pillow, py\ thon3-pyserial, python3-pyusb there is no 'python' dependency in there! however, there *are* bld_deps that are python2: %define bld_deps python, python-configobj are these somehow getting propagated into the rpm itself?

If we can't make a package that "just installs," there should be at least some documentation telling a user what to do. If he doesn't do so, I'll get to it this week. I took a pass at hacking on Matthew's spec file, but had an epic fail, so I cooked up a quick interim fake-it-out rpm for the user. It looks from the spec file that he's building everything on centos7 which might be where things are getting whacko. I built mine in a centos7 docker container just in case, but this is another one of those places where a bunch'o'containers might helps us work these kinds of os issues. Worth a thought.
