Anyone maintaining public-yum-ol7.repo?

LeonNASAMar 19 2021

Hi,
I found documentation (https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E93554_01/E95779/html/ol_sub_pubyum.html) stating that:
"You can download the latest copy of a suitable repository file for Oracle Linux 7 from https://yum.oracle.com/public-yum-ol7.repo"
Yet this file is quite out of date. It only goes upto U7 and PHP 7.2 when 7.4 appears to be the latest.
Are there any plans to maintain this? Or what is the proper procedure to get an up to date repo file with all current repos? Or are we just to maintain an up to date list on our own?
I'm trying to enable these through kickstart "%post", but "wget(ting)" this file is not very useful at the moment and using the "repo" kickstart option with "--install" does not add the required "gpg" entries to the files created in "/etc/yum.repos.d"
Thanks,
-Leon
