# EPEL repos for Fedora
6284cde
6284cde
The epelX-repos packages contain repositories for Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL).

6284cde
The repositories are disabled by default and can be used e.g. with `repoquery`:
6284cde
6284cde
    $ repoquery --repo=epel8 --whatrequires 'python(abi) = 3.6'
6284cde
6284cde
Or to download packages with `dnf`:
6284cde
6284cde
    $ dnf --repo=epel7 download python36-rpm

Note that the "base" RHEL/CentOS repos are not included.

## Quirks
6284cde
6284cde
1. All `epel-` repositories were renamed to `epelX-` (e.g. `epel8-modular`) to avoid conflicts with other EPEL versions.
6284cde
2. All `-testing` repositories were renamed to `-testingx` (e.g. `epel7-testingx`) to avoid mistakes with commands like `dnf distro-sync --enablerepo='*-testing'`.
