Describe the issue salt is a stalled EPEL package. Per the EPEL stalled package policy - https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/epel/epel-policy/#stalled_epel_requests - I have contacted the maintainer, twice, and waited the appropriate amount of time. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2104624 I am requesting rcallicotte be given commit permissions so that I might branch and build this package in epel9.
When do you need this? (YYYY/MM/DD) ASAP
When is this no longer needed or useful? (YYYY/MM/DD) NA
If we cannot complete your request, what is the impact? Upstream is changing its RPM packaging to include a frozen python virtual environment that is incompatible with the existing RPM ecosystem. Users will not be able to utilize distro-based python modules to augment salt capabilities.
