Hi @coderody,

Actually, digging a bit more on the Fedora site, the `NetworkManager-openconnect` package is not listed amongst the EPEL 8 packages for aarch64:  
=\> [Index of /pub/epel/8/Everything/aarch64/Packages/n](https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/8/Everything/aarch64/Packages/n/)

However, the detailed information on this package states that :

| Date | Author | Change |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2019-12-13 | Lubomir Rintel - 1.2.6-2.1 | - Exclude aarch64 and s390x builds |
| =\> [fedoraproject.org/pkgs/NetworkManager-openconnect/NetworkManager-openconnect/epel-8.html](http://fedoraproject.org/pkgs/NetworkManager-openconnect/NetworkManager-openconnect/epel-8.html) | | |

If this only means that builds are not put online, this may imply that if you build it on your own machine, it could work. As that is not something I frequently do myself, I can’t advise on it. However, this thread on Rocky forum might be of interest to you :  
=\> [Missing packages, 3'rd party repos - best practices](https://forums.rockylinux.org/t/missing-packages-3rd-party-repos-best-practices/8512)

In this thread, @iwalker also mentions:

> Requests can also be made to EPEL repository for them to add packages. Building yourself is fine, just means you have to rebuild for example when a new version comes out or bug fixes etc.

It looks like you may have a couple of options here 🙂
