[Arm-dev] EPEL AArch64 repo?

[Richard Henwood]

All: thanks for this - I'm now clear about the relationship between fedora project, EPEL, and CentOS - and have confidence in the repo my colleague shared!
best regards,Richard

This is the correct EPEL to use. EPEL has always been provided by the
Fedora Project for use with CentOS and other 'Enterprise Linux' builds.

There was a period where we saw demand for EPEL packages on aarch64, but
fedora was not yet tooled to build them. We maintained an unofficial and
unsigned repository (mentioned in another reply) briefly until the real
EPEL repository was available.

Please use the repository you found for EPEL, as the unofficial one
hosted on buildlogs.centos is no longer maintained.
