I think the intention was to push this to epel9-next first, but then I accidentally opened the last two PRs against epel9 instead of epel9-next. FTR, python3.11 won't be available until ~May when 9.2 comes out, so we can't yet built this in epel9 proper. Can you confirm that you'd like this in epel9-next? I think giving this some time to incubate in epel9-next definitely makes sense.
If it helps, sure ... though there aren't really any Rust packages in epel9-next, so the impact will be small (and the packages won't get much testing, either). We can build cargo2rpm v0.1.2 and rust-packaging v24 in epel9-next first, and merge to epel9 once the dependencies are available.
Right; it's possible to build for epel9-next and then merge back to epel9 and rebuild once RHEL 9.2 that will include python3.11 is released. If you or others will use and test this in epel9-next, then I think it's worth it.
Is python3.11 already available in epel9-next (or rather, CentOS Stream 9 or whatever it's called now)?
Yes, python3.11 is available in CentOS Stream 9 and thus available in the epel9-next buildroot. CentOS Stream 9 is a preview of the next RHEL 9 minor release.
I'm not sure how to check ...
You can use fedrq, another repoquerying tool, or spin up a CentOS Stream container to search.
``` $ fedrq pkgs -Sb c9s python3.11 python3.11-devel python3.11-pytest python3.11-3.11.2-2.el9.x86_64 python3.11-devel-3.11.2-2.el9.x86_64 python3.11-pytest-7.2.0-1.el9.noarch ```
If yes, then what's the process for submitting builds for epel9-next? Do koji's on-demand side-tags work there?
You can run `fedpkg build` or `fedpkg request-side-tag` on the epel9-next distgit branch just as you can anywhere else. `epel9-next` is a separate Koji build target that includes packages from CentOS Stream 9, packages from regular epel9, and packages specifically built for epel9-next. It has its own Bodhi release.
I don't think I've ever submitted an update for an "epel-next" branch before, sorry if these are questions with obvious answers :)
Don't worry about it :). The concept of EPEL Next is a bit confusing.
