            Bug ID: 787038
           Summary: git-annex is obsoleted on Fedora 26
    Classification: Platform
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: git master
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: critical
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-devtools
          Assignee: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Unable to install git-annex package on Fedora 26 since it was obsoleted. 
According to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1452074 it was
obsoleted due to build issues that no one stepped up to fix.

Without git-annex, gst-validate-launcher --sync will not work.

One workaround is to install Fedora 25 git-annex packages on Fedora 26. 
However, this has the side-effect of downgrading other packages which is
undesirable.

Are there workarounds that don't require git-annex?
