(however I am afraid I've exhausted my fight capacity on different
decisions)?
Intuitively, I think that requiring RHEL dev subscriptions would pretty
much kill EPEL packaging on Copr. Unless you specifically want to
create EPEL packages, why would you get and keep a RHEL dev subscription
when you could just not check the EPEL-boxes?
From a purely technical perspective, i.e. pretending it were CentFork
Community Linux, are there reasons not to use Oracle Linux?
