CentOS 9 support?

Good day,

Question, what is the future of CentOS 9 support?
Packager.io now supports CentOS9 ( Supported distributions · crohr/pkgr Wiki · GitHub), the previous post refers to it (What about Rocky Linux support?).

Thanks & regards

Just as a sidemark, someone seems to have tried already and is running into issues:

Support for EL9

Hi we would really like to install Zammad on a EL 9 Server, since [they suppo…rt all the Distributions packager.io supports](https://community.zammad.org/t/what-about-rocky-linux-support/11147/5) it would be very nice if you could also support EL9. Apparently there are already some things in place, but packaging fails because there is a `curl-minimal` installed which conflicts with `curl`: https://packager.io/gh/ombre8/zammad/builds/5/logs/centos-9 As I can't find `curl` as a (build)-dependency in Zammad, I assume this is something that is built in pkgr? I'm happy to help, but I somehow can't figure out where to start debugging ;) Any help is appreciated. Thanks

And what does this mean for the next steps?
Will CentOS 9 be supported in the future?
Or do we have to switch to another Linux?

CentOS 7 – 30. Juni 2024
CentOS 8 – 31. Mai 2024

I just pointed out. That’s all.
Technical questions don’t fit into this thread, sorry.

ETA unknown.
