Re: Trying to install beta in CentOS 8 -- missing py3libacl, python3-pyxattr

[Frank Crawford]

For those interested, I've now built both python3-pyxattr and py3libacl
in COPR, which you can install by downloading the relevant repo files
from https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/frankcrawford/  for bth
EPEL7 and EPEL8.
Note that I haven't tested them too much so far.
