Hi,

I'd like the centos-release-ceph-hammer rpm to be included in the extras (1) repository like the other centos-release-* packages.

First things first: some of these centos-release* packages are tagged el7.centos and others el7. Niels told me el7.centos was the right tag and since this matches the build target name (core7-extras-common-el7.centos), el7.centos seems like the right target. Could I get confirmation that I should use el7.centos for centos-release-ceph-*?

Then, the main problem is that packages in the extras repository should be built against core7-extras-common-el7.centos but I cannot use that build target (2).

Is there an accepted way of doing this?

Thanks, François

I think it's something that is decide at SIG level, we use for %dist .el7 for Cloud SIG. Though our primary target is CentOS, our packages are consumable by all EL variants.

Moreover, I don't see the point of encoding origin in dist tag when it's done (in a better fashion) at yum database level, but that's a matter of taste.
