Sorry to hear this is problematic, and potentially bringing
controversy.
The answer, from me (one of the Copr maintainers/devels payed by RH), is
that we did not have to care about the epel-6 chroots too much. The
limiting factor of Fedora Copr is mostly storage. For the context:
- epel-6 consumption now is 94GB (building still ON)
- fedora-36 decreases quickly to 1943GB (building OFF, recently)
- fedora-35 1193GB
- ...
- fedora-31 still 112GB (building OFF for a few years?)
- fedora-30 still 71GB ...
For more info see the stats [1].
If we really want to shut epel-6, I think we can do that? Can we please
have an issue for this? But this is going to be a political decision,
because technically it is a micro optimization for the bottleneck we
have.
