So I'm going through all my packages again, seeing what builds, what
doesn't and why it doesn't.

Thank you to Rex and others[1] who have fixed many of the packages to
build for RHEL8 out of the box.
There are alot less failures than there were last time I did this.

Majority of the changes needed are turning on bootstrap, due to
circular dependencies in testing.
The few other changes that need to happen, I'm going to make sure are
encased in a good %if statement and try to push them up to Fedora
master and f30.
Several of these are due to no qt4 in RHEL8, so if I do it correctly,
it should make it easier for Fedora to turn off qt4 when the time
comes.

>From the reports of the people setting up the infrastructure of EPEL8,
at best, we will be able to start building packages just two days
before I go on vacation (with no/little internet access on vacation).
I'm working on getting all my building results and proposed fixes in
an easy to read and (hopefully) easy to implement format.
If everything goes well I should have the build-order and
what-needs-changes ready by end of day Monday.

[1] - I'm sure there are other people who fixed some of the packages,
but Rex's name was on all the ones I checked.  After a while I quit
checking and just appreciated it.  So if I did not mention your name,
I apologize, but I still am grateful for what you did.
