Anybody know what's going on with Centos 7.6-1810? Some packages in EPEL depend on it, but it is apparently not yet available. This discrepancy is breaking yum updates for me.
This isn't a Fedora development issue. Please refer this to the CentOS or EPEL lists.
EPEL is a Fedora project. My question wasn't really about CentOS, but rather, about maintainer best practices for EPEL branches. To clarify, my question is whether package maintainers are expected to ensure their EPEL branch for their packages works against the latest CentOS release (without enabling 'cr' repo) or whether it is expected that packages will work as soon as the corresponding RHEL release is available (which is usually available about 3-4 weeks earlier). What do we use for the EPEL buildroot in koji?
Even though EPEL is a Fedora project, the main development and work is done on the epel-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org mailing list.
EPEL is built from the 'current' state of Red Hat Enterprise Linux as synced from 'rhn (or whatever they call it these days)' every 12 hours. This means that CentOS users must use CR during the intermediate time.
For example, xorgxrdp-0.2.8-3.el7 depends on xorg-x11-server-Xorg 1.20.1, which isn't yet available (rather, available on in the cr repo, not in CentOS updates yet).
