Hello all,
It seems that starting yesterday new packages:
koji/mock/createrepo_c/pigz/python-lockfile/python-munch
are distributed in CentOS7 Extras repo:
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/extras/x86_64/Packages/
I believe all of the above are already provided by EPEL7,
so why duplicate these ?
I guess that these may be specific versions needed for
cbs.centos.org buildsystem and I can see that these
are dependencies of centos-packager which also has
been added to extras:
but then wouldn;t it be better to distribute these
via an additional repository - like for SIG provided
packages, and not in a repository that is (probably)
enabled for most of CentOS users ?
It seems to me that this set of packages is targeted
at developer community, not at general users
community ?
Best Regards
Jarek
