Long answer: I think that any package that a non-redhatter cannot tell is part of RHEL8, such as screen, is fair game for EPEL8. I believe this is just those packages like Stephen said, that are part of buildroot, but weren't shipped. I don't think they need to be in a module (unless it makes sense), but can be their own package. </my opinion> _______________________________________________ epel-devel mailing list -- epel-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to epel-devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/epel-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
