ELN is an evolution of the request for an alternate buildroot for
newer x86_64 processors. The reasoning behind that new buildroot was
that we expected that the next major release of RHEL would likely drop
support for older hardware and therefore could take advantage of
enhancements and processor extensions available for newer hardware. As
plans for this proceeded, they expanded into a desire to do more than
just test out the processor architecture. Instead, we want to have a
complete alternative compose of Fedora Rawhide that resembles the way
that Red Hat and CentOS builds their packages. The idea being that
Fedora developers and third-party vendors who rely on Red Hat
Enterprise Linux have a place where they can directly contribute to
what will eventually become the next RHEL.
For those of us who know little about the details of RHEL and CentOS
can you elaborate on what is different in the way that they build their
packages compared to Fedora?
The attempt to explain this was in the following paragraph you have trimmed:
Ah OK I think I misunderstood.
I thought the above was saying there were fundamental architectural
differences in the way the builds worked, rather than just that people
might choose to make different choices in the spec file.
