Re: EPEL Packages in need of building for EL-6

As far as the EPEL-5 distribution is concerned, if you didn't push the update through bodhi, it's fine don't worry that it's gone into Koji. I don't know CVS well enough to know how to cleanly revert (I generally use Subversion or Git) I've CCed in the EPEL devel list which almost certainly includes a number of people more familiar with CVS than myself and can tell you the two liner to revert back to the cppad-20080403-3_el5 tag.

eclipse status on EL-6
by Chitlesh GOORAH 11 Jul '10

11 Jul '10

Hello there, Does anyone know what is the status of eclipse for EL-6 ? I believe it would be provided by RH/Centos, right ? I'm asking this because my package eclipse-eclox requires eclipse-pde and currently fails to build for EL-6. Chitlesh

I would very much like build balsa for EL-6 but it requires libesmtp which has no EL-6 branch. I am libesmtp packager for fedora and I have unsuccessfully tried to create it. I have found http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/FAQ#How_do_I_request_a_EPEL_branch_for_a… and created https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=612334 I have not got a response yet, though. I do not quite know what the next step should be...
