When EPEL-8 was trying to get out the door, I tried to make it 'fully operational' by having fedpkg in it. It turned out that was a bad idea on my part as I ended up adding about 130 packages to EPEL-8 which have not been updated or cared for since.
The problems involved is that I did this with the 'ask for forgiveness vs ask for permission' approach with the idea that packagers and such would update as needed over time. This has been highly unfair to the Fedora packagers who have gotten bugs or requests to update which they had no interest in. So I would like to start cleaning up and working through which ones need to be removed.
There are 108 packages which have not been updated since their initial import. All of them are build dependencies for things like bodhi/koji/mock which then are required by fedpkg/fedora-packager. [They are in the included text file]
The list of packages which have been updated since 2019 are shorter and I will repeat them for sanity sake:
