Hopefully that works for you but my experience is things change very slowly
for EL, specifically EL 7 and I wouldn't expect anything soon if at all
(this is my experience, others may have different experiences).

It may be simple enough to rebuild the package from EL 8 yourself. I can
confirm that the package at least builds. The caveat is that you're now a
local package maintainer :)

ddclient is EPEL not EL and I'm the maintainer.  I saw your bug Nick and I'll try to update it later today.

BTW, the newer version isn't a fork I don't think.  The existing maintainer just moved to GitHub from SourceForge.

Hi Scott,

That would be great, thanks.
Fork may be a bit OTT as a description, but someone else used the term on Cloudflare's forum. I think the original maintainer stopped maintaining in 2015 - https://sourceforge.net/p/ddclient/wiki/Home/. The new maintainer then took over and moved it to Github - https://github.com/ddclient/ddclient. However I may be completely wrong.

AFAIK, wimpunk was the original maintainer and wimpunk's also the one who made the 3.9.1 release. There do seem to be new committers on GitHub now though.
