Several Gnome packages have a Hidden BuildRoot requirement for meson. Had to build and add meson the c7.2009.00 directories for all arches. Complicating this issue .. el7 requires meson-0.45 to build .. el7-extras requires meson-0.47 to build. Meson is not in base el7. 2. webkitgtk4 requires EOL'ed devtoolset-7 combined with specifically llvm-toolset-7, needed a unique buildroot/configuration specifically for that package on all arches. Neither of these toolsets are in base el7. 3. exiv2 requires llvm-toolset-7, needed a unique buildroot/configuration specifically for that package on all arches. This is not in base el7. 4. cockpit requires go-toolset-1.12. This is not in base el7. 5. The standard CentOS debranding for ipa and sos have failed, they need to be refactored. 6. We need to convert the aarch64 and ppc64le (power9) kernel, kernel-4.18.0-193.19.1.el8_2, to el7 and get it to build. 7. We had an issue with the ppc, ppc64, ppc64le gcc hanging on build which we solved using rngd on the builders.
