I'm mostly certain this is only this one we strictly "need" right now:
libcomps
We might need this in the future:
dnf
This would be helpful, but the current EL7 version is too old for
Pulp's needs (and we currently have a workaround: a C-compiling
package on PyPI [1] [2]):
createrepo_c
There are already bugs requesting these things:
*
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1672102
*
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1719977
They were closed as WONTFIX, but feel free to reopen with your own
justification to add to them to get that changed.
