We (the AWX team) do not build or provide AWX in RPM version, so you're  
probably better off talking to whomever maintains that repo.

Hi Bill

I’m the maintainer of the unofficial AWX RPM repo…

Can you please try again, I think the python package is there now…

If you have any other issues, please report them here:

Thanks

Martin
