having easy access to srpm should be a must, this help us users help devel. I for example would like to find out why 9p driver is not included in qemu - first thing I do is take a look at rpm source - and with oVirt I have to fiddle around, and it could have (should) been made easier for the users. My vote would go - devel, please just put it in repo rpm(s). thanks On 30/08/16 11:56, Yedidyah Bar David wrote:

Usually you either look at a source rpm, or rebuild it to get a binary rpm. You do not install it.
Developers in oVirt generally do not do even that, but work with git repos.
I suggest looking at the following links as a start. If you need something else, please provide more details.

That said, the below links are yum repos. Add them as the baseurl of repos and you should be able to install PKG.src. See also e.g.:

hi all
I wonder why .src.rpms are not in yum repos They are, what specifically were you looking for?
and would you know where to find them? http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-4.0/rpm/el7/SRPMS/ http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-4.0/rpm/fc23/SRPMS/
