Sorry, support for CentOS / RHEL 7 has been discontinued due to a too old kernel version and backwards-incompatible Netlink changes. I think the easiest way would be to add a dependency on a newer kernel, e.g. kernel-lt which is now afaik 5.4 (supported).
For EPEL, I only can depend on packages in RHEL itself (or in EPEL).
Or you can try to revert commit d61505b039bf0aa6697e28b2a4e07907c89ba1fb. I can't guarantee it working out of the box, though. Or rather f8bcb037b5b71a19209f1b63d52895c8c34c675b
Oh sorry, messed up two commits from the same person, mea culpa. You're right, disregard my hash, please.
https://gitlab.nic.cz/labs/bird/-/commit/f8bcb037b5b71a19209f1b63d52895c8c34... let's the build succeed. As there is no MPLS support in CentOS/RHEL 7...do you treat reverting this commit only for this build target as very risky or problematic (without an in-depth analysis, just from your feeling)? As of writing, BIRD 2.13.1 works on the stock CentOS/RHEL 7 kernel (at least for a simple BGP setup). Regards, Robert
