I'm trying to build a package that requires swig 3.0.12+. The version in EPEL is way too old but swig3 is provided in the extras repo. 

I was able to build locally via mock and COPR fine, but when I tried official builds it doesn't look like the "extras" repo is enabled.

Is that on purpose?

Which extras directory and which release of EL are you talking about? The one in CentOS is not the same as the one in RHEL and they have different things. EPEL builds against RHEL so that might affect things.

I use the Fedora CentOS 7 test instance as a test environment when trying to track down available packages:

$ sudo yum list swig*
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Repository epel is listed more than once in the configuration
Repository epel-testing is listed more than once in the configuration
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * base: d36uatko69830t.cloudfront.net
 * epel: mirrors.kernel.org
 * extras: d36uatko69830t.cloudfront.net
 * updates: d36uatko69830t.cloudfront.net
Available Packages
swig.x86_64                             2.0.10-5.el7                         base  
swig-doc.noarch                         2.0.10-5.el7                         base  
swig3.x86_64                            3.0.12-17.el7                        extras
swig3-doc.noarch                        3.0.12-17.el7                        extras
swig3-gdb.x86_64                        3.0.12-17.el7                        extras

Thanks,

Richard
