Hi,
With the refocus of CentOS to Stream, i think it'd make sense to open the discussion about the missing subpackages (mainly devel ones) in the repos.
While I understand that this was part of the idea of a "pure clone" of RHEL when working with CentOS Linux, now that stream is more intended to be used by devel community and not as a pure rebuild, I think there are reasons to change this policy.
What'd be the best way to open this discussion?, is it being discussed already?, should this be a topic for the board?
Best regards,
Alfredo
Not answering your questions, but probably related: I already opened a Bug on bugzilla.redhat.com (#1915238) about the CentOS Stream "Devel" repository being empty. So the situation concerning devel subpackages is currently even worse for CentOS Stream 8 than for CentOS Linux 8.
For some reasons the bug can not be viewed by the public. I don't know why and it seems that I can not change it. Disclaimer: I have to admit that I'm not used to Bugzilla, so maybe I'm just missing the proper setting.
Best
Peter
