Hi Leigh and Pat, (cc:ed epel-developers) I maintain the EPEL8 branch of nextcloud-client, and it has a subpackage, -nemo, that's currently uninstallable because Nemo is not built in EPEL8: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1982034 I checked the dependency trees, and Nemo and all the packages needed to built it (cinnamon-desktop and xapps) are actually already branched, but never released for EPEL8. nemo also has a runtime dependency on cinnamon-translations. The latest version of xapps I can build is 1.6.10 from the F31 branch (1.8 and above won't build), which limits the version of Nemo that builds (I've just been trawling the spec history, so this might not be 100% accurate) to 4.6.5 from the F32 branch. cinnamon-desktop's Rawhide branch rebuilds fine and I have not tried cinnamon-translations but I suspect it will be fine too. The question I have is... given all these packages are already branched, presumably at some point there was a plan to bring Cinnamon to EPEL8. - Is that no longer going to happen, and if so, why? - Are there concerns about having an older version of Nemo available in EPEL8 (especially when it comes to potential security issues)? I'm interested in file managers in general, and would not mind co-maintaining these set of four packages just to check them out, but if there are valid reasons why they are not available then I will just disable nextcloud-client-nemo when building on EL8.
