tzdata
by Eduardo Kaftanski 12 Mar '10

12 Mar '10

Hi, A new tzdata (tzdata-2010e-1.el5.src.rpm) was released this morning by upstream. It includes a change thats critical for chilean CentOS users, as local savings was extended due to the recent earthquake. Is it possible to recompile and release it during today? I would gladly help if you tell me how to. Many thanks, -- --- Eduardo Kaftanski ekaftan(a)gmail.com

I would like to hear from >core CentOS devs. Akemi, As suggested, I am posting here to get the dev feedback, clearly having kmods is a much better solution than linbits approach, but the existing bugs will likely catch most new uses off guard. Thanks guys, jlc

PHP 5.2.10 success
by Johann 06 Mar '10

06 Mar '10

I saw a request for feedback, so here it is: I have installed PHP 5.2.10 from the testing repo on 2 servers. One is a backup webserver that runs 4 Drupal sites. No issues with any of them so far, and I plan on upgrading the production server this coming weekend. The other is our mail server. It was the catalyst to try the upgrade, as our CEO insisted on getting Roundcube installed and it will not install with any version <5.2. 5.2's release was in Feb. 2008 and it seems to be mature and stable. It's been in Ubuntu since Hardy. Thanks, ~J~

distributed compiling with icecc out of a mock-chroot
by Brian Schueler 05 Mar '10

05 Mar '10

Hi, CentOSers, I found out that icecc (icecream package), the distributed compiling system delivers a great advantage for me when building software. It's quite easy to set up mock 0.9.19 to use icecream by default. There must be the lines config_opts['chroot_setup_cmd'] = 'install buildsys-build icecream' ... config_opts['macros']['%_smp_mflags'] = "-jX" in the specific OS definition, where X in the _smp_mplags line is the summary of all CPU cores in your compiler network. You have to add a repository containing the icecream RPM. I'm using icecream-0.9.4. The icecream cache must be delegated to the mock chroot by adding config_opts['plugin_conf']['bind_mount_opts']['dirs'].append\ (('/var/cache/icecream', '/var/cache/icecream' )) to the site-defaults.cfg file. This is why mock 0.9.19 is required for this. Be sure that your icecream package contains /etc/profile.d/icecream.sh which is needed to wrap cc,gcc,g++,... for icecc in the mock chroot. Or you simply take my RPM. Remember, that the compile nodes must be in the same subnet, so it's a good idea that moving together your build machines using VPN bridges or whatever. Pure compile nodes may even be something else than CentOS (i.e. Debian) because the needed (target) compiler binaries are delivered over the icecc network, too - and held in a cache. What do you think about that? Cheers, Brian
