I forgot one step. You can change the list of packages it checks by
editing package.list
So, the full list of instructions is
git clone
https://github.com/tdawson/tdawson-misc-scripts.git
cd tdawson-misc-scripts/will-it-install
vi package.list
python3 will-it-install.py x86_64 centos
This script will work on RHEL/CentOS 8 and any of the currently
supported Fedora releases.
I do not expect it to work on RHEL7

Hi,
As discussed in the EPEL Steering Committee meeting, I made a python
script, will-it-install.py out of a different script I had just
made.[1]
It looks like it's working pretty good for both rawhide and centos 8
(with EPEL8).
To run,
Download the whole directory structure [2], edit package.list and then
python3 will-it-install.py x86_64 centos
You can do any of the 4 RHEL arches.
Feedback is appreciated.
