I'm not sure exactly what you mean here... I think (please correct me if I'm wrong) you are wanting "all EPEL packages" to also be built as part of ELN and shipped as some sort of 'EPEL-ELN' ? The main problem with this is that "all EPEL packages" is not a defined set like ELN is. EPEL is not a specific collection of packages. It's packages which have maintainers that wish to maintain them. For this (and other) reasons we have never mass branched epel, we have always let maintainers branch when they wish to support that branch. I'm not sure if there's a way around this... I suppose we could try and collect a list of packages where maintainer(s) always want to branch them, but that would need to be a living document/list and would probibly be hard to keep up to date. kevin
