is it still OK to set up EPEL as a repo?


Yes.  CentOS Stream is expected to be backward-compatible with RHEL, for
the same reason that each RHEL point release is backward-compatible with
previous point releases.


Except in cases where packages in a RHEL point release are being rebased.
This is something which is happening with a lot more gusto than in any
previous releases so there may be points where say a QT or a
gnomelib provides in Stream is ahead of EPEL



So how would one use this shiny bit of information? Is there a way to discover if an EPEL application is going to clobber your system before you install it?
