Pushing packages from epel-testing to epel?
by Gilboa Davara
Hello all,
I'm built the first icewm-el5 package two weeks ago and it's still in
epel-testing.
Is it being auto-pushed into epel-release, or do I need to manually push
it. (F7-style.)
Googling for answer didn't return any meaningful answers.
Thanks,
Gilboa

Questions about EPEL Distribution
by Perry Myers
I am working on a project that requires EPEL RPMs as part of the installation
process. We also need to support environments where the target machines are
disconnected from the Internet. My question is, how would you (the EPEL
maintainers) prefer to have these packages distributed? Here are the options as
I see them:
1. Include the needed EPEL RPMS on our distribution media.
2. Include the epel-release RPM only and provide instructions for setting up a
local EPEL mirror and modifying the epel.repo file to point to that local mirror.
We will certainly give credit to the EPEL project in our documentation and
clearly indicate which RPMS are pulled from EPEL regardless of how we distribute
things.
Let me know if anyone here has an opinion on this topic.
Thanks,
Perry

Erlang/Ejabberd problem
by Jeffrey Ollie
Got a new bug report[1] today about being unable to install Ejabberd on
EL-5. Ejabberd requires Erlang. Ejabberd is in the stable repository,
but Erlang is in the testing repository. So if you don't enable the
testing repository you can't install Ejabberd due to missing
dependencies.
Can either Erlang or Ejabberd be moved so that they are both available
in the same repository? I'd be fine with Ejabberd being moved back to
the testing repository.
