While exploring the ways how to start providing the pre-built SCAP
Security Guide XML files in a zip archive automatically, we encountered
the following issue:
[1] https://github.com/OpenSCAP/scap-security-guide/issues/590
This needs to be fixed first. Only then we can start shipping pre-built
XML files zip archive. We are looking into fixing this issue and
should be able to provide that promised pre-built zip archive very
soon.
For now please use the process described in:
[2] https://github.com/OpenSCAP/scap-security-guide/wiki/Building-from-Source
to build an scap-security-guide RPM.
Apologize for the inconvenience / delay.
