I don't know if it is reasonable for several reasons. 1. We have no access (no pun intended) to those packages. [Yes the person packages mongodb in Fedora works for Red Hat but that does not mean they have access to the bits that another group is doing for SCL work.] 2. SCL packages use their own form of magic and have their own solutions to security issues. This can mean what they do for a particular package won't work outside of an SCL environment.

I don't know enough to say yes/no.] -- Stephen J Smoogen. _______________________________________________ epel-devel mailing list -- epel-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to epel-devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org
