Rebuilding locally:

To build a package from dist-git, using mock:

fedpkg --release epel8 mockbuild --root rhel+epel-8-x86_64 -- --addrepo=https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/ktdreyer/python3.11/epel-8-x86_64/

fedpkg --release epel9 mockbuild --root rhel+epel-9-x86_64 -- --addrepo=https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/ktdreyer/python3.11/epel-9-x86_64/

Bugs

I've copied and and heavily modified packages from RHEL for this. When the RHEL maintainers ship an update to the underlying libraries (eg rpm-lib), I must merge RHEL's changes in and rebuild.

These packages also depend on python3.11-rpm from EPEL where we have the same convention. For example, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2265373
