#10074 please branch softhsm for epel8
Closed: Fixed 2 years ago by humaton. Opened 2 years ago by dcavalca.

  • Describe the issue
    We're trying to branch softhsm for epel8 in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1942748 but fedpkg fails with Could not execute request_branch: This package is already an EL package and is built on all supported arches, therefore, it cannot be in EPEL.. However, this package is only provided as a non-default module stream in c8s / RHEL 8, so it should be fine to have in EPEL 8 according to the policy.

  • When do you need this? (YYYY/MM/DD)
    it's not urgent

  • When is this no longer needed or useful? (YYYY/MM/DD)
    N/A

  • If we cannot complete your request, what is the impact?
    we cannot branch softhsm, which blocks branching swtpm among other things

Hi, so it seems that the module is part of rhel-8-for-x86_64-appstream-rpms which if I understand it correctly is a default stream. That is why fedpkg fails to request a new branch.

rhel-8-for-x86_64-appstream-rpms contains both default and non-default module streams. softhsm is part of the idm:DL1 module stream, which is non-default. This request is valid, please re-open and address.
