Greetings.

This was discussed a bit in the #epel channel, but it was suggested I take it to the list...

While adding the epel-modular.repo file to the epel8 branch of the epel-release package, I noticed that the package was installing /etc/yum.repos.d/epel-playground.repo (although with enabled=0)--which seemed a little out of place.

The question came up whether the epel8 version of the epel-release package should be installing that repo file at all, or whether it should be completely dropped and only be installed by the epel8-playground version of the epel-release package.

Are there any opinions about dropping the epel-playground.repo file from the epel8 branch of the epel-release package? Or leave it as is?

I can see one potential use case where someone could run dnf --enablerepo=epel-playground update epel-release as a way to switch from the standard to playground repos.
