Aside from the practical need for doing somethingin that case, there is
an obvious lack of communication between RHEL and EPEL. It is good in
one sense, that is EPEL is truely independent and on par with other
add-on repositories, but sometime it is annoying. I have a different
issue with lesstif/openmotif and how to package them such that it is
easier to have an implementation indepedence, but the RHEL maintainer
never answered my mails.
