• Describe the issue
  I have permissions to branch hspell for epel9, but fedpkg will not allow me.

$ fedpkg request-branch --repo hspell epel9
Could not execute request_branch: This package is already an EL package, therefore it cannot be in EPEL. If this is a mistake or you have an exception, please contact the Release Engineering team.

I have checked both regular RHEL 9.2 and CentOS Stream 9, and hspell is not in either of them. It was originally built for CentOS Stream, but was never released, so it's possible it might be in the CentOS Stream buildroot. But that doesn't prevent it from being in EPEL.

Please branch hspell for epel9
