#10733 Stalled EPEL package: tinyproxy
Closed: Get back later 2 years ago by humaton. Opened 2 years ago by rgelobter.

  • Describe the issue
    tinyproxy is not available in EPEL8, and is an old version in EPEL7. An EPEL 8 build request[1] has gone unanswered for many months. Per EPEL policy[2], I am requesting that permissions to create and commit to a new epel8 branch be granted to FAS rgelobter.

  • When do you need this? (YYYY/MM/DD)
    N/A

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

  • If we cannot complete your request, what is the impact?
    no package for tinyproxy will be available in EPEL8

Hi @rgelobter, looking at fasjson I don't see you in any groups. https://fasjson.fedoraproject.org/v1/users/rgelobter/groups/

If this is an error and you are in the packagers group. Could you please log out from all fedora services and log back in?

Hi @humaton I am not in the packagers group but I would like to assist in building this package for EPEL8

According to EPEL docs you need to be in the packagers group to be able to help out with epel packaging.

Maybe @carlwgeorge can help you get sponsored so you can contribute to EPEL packaging.

I reached out to @rgelobter directly to talk about the sponsorship process.

When you get into the packagers group, please reopen this ticket.
