Cleaning up EPEL9 duplicate packages

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



There are 4 packages that are in epel9 that were also released with RHEL 9.0.
This isn't that big of a surprise, we knew about them.  Three managed to get branched and built before we had the check in place.  One had a race condition with the build in RHEL.

Two are easy to remove:
** pybind11
- Nothing in epel9 currently depends on it.
- I will remove it today
- https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2091185
** tesseract
- Although a few things depend on it in epel9, nothing depends on it's specific version.
- I will remove it today.
- https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2091183

Two are harder
** libwmf
- epel9 release version is lower than RHEL, thus doesn't get installed.
- RHEL is missing libwmf-devel, thus things that depend on it to build, will not be able to once it is removed.
- I did a check and nothing depends on libwmf-devel in runtime or buildtime.  But I know that sometimes the buildtime checks don't always work.
- I am waiting a week (possibly two) before I remove this package.
- https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2091184
** tesseract-tessdata
- epel9 release version is lower than RHEL, thus doesn't get installed.
- There are about 150 binary sub-packages that get built, but RHEL 9.0 only releases 2 of them.  The epel9 version has all of them.  Thus, removing this package is rather huge.
- My opinion is that we get it moved over to tesseract-tessdata-epel and built it without those two packages that RHEL provides.
