But from what Mike just said, EPEL/SIGs should _NOT_ be building against those <br>

My only option is to manually download all the "missing" -devel rpms from <a href="http://koji.stream.centos.org">koji.stream.centos.org</a> and install them that way. Which is less than optimal! I kinda feel like a solution for this is what is being asked for when people ask for a Devel repo.</div><div><br></div><div>Are there any flaws in my understanding?</div><div><br></div><div>--</div><div><br></div><div>Kaleb</div><div> </div></div></div>
