RPM for rhel 9

[Pascal76]

Hello,

The RPM from Redhat are a bit old (nearly 2 years old) and there are significant bugfixes on recent builds (ex: on SERVFAIL).
Could it be possible to provide the up-to-date RPMs for rhel 9 (and then almalinux 9 etc...)
This would benefit a lot of users.
Major softwares have such fresh RPMs (php with Remi's RPM repository, Mariadb, ...)

Aren't RPMs on Fedora enough? They get updated often, it should be possible to rebuild them for RHEL 9 or even 8 if desired. Is there a reason why those sources won't work? https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/unbound/tree/rawhide

It would be fairly easy to create automated rebuilds on copr.fedorainfracloud.org with epel8 and epel9 repositories. But if you have some issues in centos stream 9 or rhel9, please open issue at issues.redhat.com on RHEL project, unbound component. We would update our packages if they do not bring backward incompatible changes. So far I haven't seen so issue, but we are likely to make update for rhel9 few times.

could you share the command lines to rebuild for RHEL 9 please ?

Checkout fedora rpms on rhel9 host:

• git clone https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/unbound.git && cd unbound
• dnf install rpm-build
• dnf builddep unbound.spec
• rpmbuild --rebuild unbound.spec

or on Fedora, try fedpkg way:

• dnf install fedpkg
• fedpkg clone -a unbound && cd unbound
• usermod -aG mock $(whoami)
• fedpkg --release epel9 mockbuild

It will print instructions how to choose epel9 base.
