#196 No defined default stream
Closed: Invalid by sgallagh. Opened by remi.

Closed: Invalid
Reopen Issue

It seems default stream are not defined anywhere

Ex: https://pagure.io/releng/fedora-module-defaults/blob/el8/f/cobbler.yaml

I think should have a 

 document: modulemd-defaults
 version: 1
 data:
     module: cobbler
+    stream: 3
     profiles: 
         3: [default]

Effect, no default version, so nothing found

Notice that whatever Fedora policy is, this is about EPEL

The current EPEL policy is "EPEL modules may not have default streams". It looks like this didn't make its way from EPSCo vote to the documentation, but that's the current state of things.

The main reason for this is to avoid cases where a RHEL minor update might add a non-modular RPM that is in an EPEL default stream and it won't be handled properly.
