Why doesn't this exists yet ?
Because there's not an automated way to create it?
A simple one:
ln -f 6/i386/epel-release-* epel-release-6.rpm
How is that automated? :)
Sure, I can do that manually right now, but what makes you think I would notice when there's a new update? Manually putting it on a person is something I want to avoid. ;)
Perhaps we could use something from the fedmsg bus to detect when this package is pushed to stable. Or run a cron job that lists the most current one in the repo...
Another option, how do we just get epel-release into RHEL? Scientific ships with it in their core. It makes things so much nicer. I realize Red Hat doesn't want to support everything from EPEL, but having it easily available might be nice. I haven't used a RHEL system since 2007 without EPEL anyway ;)
The wiki give a link to the repoview page. This will allow to also use a permanent link
There is a lot of tuto using something like: yum install http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
Search epel-release on google You will find entry with 6-3, 6-4, 6-5, ...
