--- Comment #2 from Andrew Bauer <zonexpertconsult...@outlook.com> ---
Hi Jason,
The short answer to the "why" question is because zoneminder depends on it. 
I've given a more in-depth answer over in the fedora devel list if you are
interested:
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/de...@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/G4LBTRW52OAGEO3AFE6APZUHXUGHBIUQ/

I am just learning the ropes of the Fedora system so my apologies if I am doing
something incorrectly or in an atypical fashion. Rest assured, I am quite
serious about getting all of zoneminder's (non-ffmpeg) dependencies into both
EPEL & Fedora. I do have someone willing to sponsor me if needed.

I've been managing my own packages, including perl-Sys-Mmap, in a small repo at
zmrepo.zoneminder.com, and I just uploaded perl-Sys-Mmap to my Copr repo as
well:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/kni/zoneminder_deps/build/495048/

Don't know if any of that helps. Small tweaks were made, but  I don't recall
having to do anything special to get it to install or build properly on el6.

I think I know where to request a new branch. Since I'm not yet an official
packager, I don't know if I can, but I will certainly try. thank you.
