Creating an issue here, per known issue #4 from EPEL-8.0 announcement: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/epel-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/HXFHAPXPG2FX4NHP2WDNE3J3JXE53LML/
tracker-devel and quota-devel are missing from Code Ready Builder/Powertools repos. This blocks the netatalk package.
Note that tracker and quota packages exist in rhel/centos repos. It is only the -devel subpackages that are missing.
tracker-devel and quota-devel are now available in EPEL8. Please build your packages. I believe this ticket can be closed.
Are you sure? Not seeing this on my end:

You need to add in the CentOS-8 - Devel repo
# This should work for devel repo name=CentOS-$releasever - Devel #mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=Devel&infra=$infra baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/$contentdir/$releasever/Devel/$basearch/os/ gpgcheck=1 enabled=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-centosofficial
Thanks - was just going to ask what the repo file should look like.
Does/Can Fedora Koji build against CentOS repos??
No, and yes. EPEL builds against RHEL repo's. The one exception is that RHEL8 also pulls in the CentOS Devel repo, that has these missing -devel packages. So, during a build, that requires one of these devel packages, all of your packages are from RHEL, except the one or two devel packages coming from CentOS. This has been tested and works. Although it isn't perfect (no s390x builds) we decided it was better than what we currently had, which is nothing.
Workaround sor s390x: In your EPEL8 rpm specs you will have to use ExcludeArch, ExclusiveArch, %ifarch, or %ifnarch so that your builds do not build on s390x, or skip that library for s390x. Example: Put the following line in your spec file. ExcludeArch: s390x

Thanks for the help.
Note that aarch64 builds are still failing:

Since the build is now finding tracker-devel, but not tracker.... I am unsure where the proper place is to raise this issue.
That is related to a totally different problem. https://pagure.io/epel/issue/66
Currently, the only solution is to not build on aarch64 or s390x if you need packages in that list. And, yes, tracker is on that list of packages missing from aarch64 and s390x.
