--- Comment #1 from Josh Boyer jwboyer@redhat.com --- nasm is provided in RHEL via the CodeReady-Linux Builder repository, or in CentOS Stream via the PowerTools repository:

As such, it won't be packaged in EPEL because it's already provided in RHEL.
Looking at the build failure, it's not that nasm isn't available. It's that the version of nasm you are requiring is newer than the version found in RHEL.
DEBUG util.py:634: No matching package to install: 'nasm >= 2.14'
RHEL/CentOS Stream has version 2.13.03 as you can see above.

--- Comment #2 from Tomasz Kantecki tomasz.kantecki@intel.com --- Thanks and sorry I missed it.
Would it be possible to update nasm package then? Should I close this BZ and create a new one for nasm package update in RHEL?

That's an option. If there's something in your package that absolutely needs an update, it might be the only one.
Is there a way to build it against the version already in RHEL?

--- Comment #4 from Tomasz Kantecki tomasz.kantecki@intel.com --- Assembly is primary implementation language of the library.
Older versions of NASM don't support instructions used in multiple modules of the library. There doesn't seem to be any value behind this option.
