robert reported a new issue against the project: `releng` that you are following: `` * Describe the issue
The package `libssh` got part of the `rhel-7-{server,workstation}-extras-rpms` repo, however only for the x86_64 architecture, but not for aarch64, ppc64 and ppc64le. Thus it is currently not possible to build e.g. `tmate` for EPEL 7 on all architectures.
As per https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL:Packaging#Limited_Arch_Packages, I would like to import the current RHEL source RPM into EPEL 7 with lower ENVRA, but the `epel7` branch of `libssh` is blocked in Git (and likely also in Koji).
``` ! [remote rejected] epel7 -> epel7 (hook declined) ```
* When do you need this? (YYYY/MM/DD)
As soon as possible, but not urgent.
* When is this no longer needed or useful? (YYYY/MM/DD)
n/a
* If we cannot complete your request, what is the impact?

mohanboddu added a new comment to an issue you are following: `` @robert This is a tricky situation since pkgdb is no more. The best way to resolve this is, you can ask the current package maintainers to give you the permissions to maintain the package for epel7 or ask them to unretire it for epel7 (which makes them to maintain it).
Once its done, please come back here (or ask them to update/create a ticket to unblock it in koji if they would like to maintain it) and we will unblock it in koji.
Sorry for this situation as there is no easy way to solve this. ``

Thus, can you please unblock `libssh` in Koji? ``

According to @kevin's analysis on the IRC the PDC (Product Definition Center) needs to be updated as well. ``
