The packages are in channels that are layered onto RHEL and not
available to customers who have not bought those products. Only the
SRPMS are available. Thus building those packages would be impossible
for someone who is trying to build stuff on CentOS or in the build
system. So basically you have to pull them because you can't build
them IF you following the rule as written.
I think we've been through this before, but if EPEL would ship the same
version that Red Hat does of the layered products then there wouldn't be
any conflict for those who have the layered product and the one's who do
have the layered product can still enjoy the package. Or am I missing
something here?
Also, doesn't CentOS ship re-builds of the layared products?
