[CentOS-devel] CROSS-LIST Notice: Changes in EPEL

[Jim Perrin]

If you use the EPEL repository, please read
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/epel-announce/2014-November/000032.html

TL;DR: There are a large number of orphaned/unmaintained packages in
EPEL across the 5, 6, and 7 trees. These packages will be removed from
EPEL unless they are picked up by a packager. Packages that *depend* on
an orphaned package will be removed as well to ensure repo-closure.


Please review the package lists to see if something you use is impacted.
If you're impacted and you have the required skills, please consider
taking over ownership of the package.
