Re: [CentOS-devel] CentOS 7 and release numbering
by Michael.Goldfinger＠inhouse.wko.at 12 Jun '14

12 Jun '14

Morning all, I am a real newbie. In fact I just registered to give my two cents about the release numbering discussion. My vote would be to keep the version numbering in line with RHEL too. I have always found that version numbers that increase normally are much more logical that version numbers that include a date. However as someone who has not installed any Linux distributions before I do not really care about version numbering. I choose CentOS because I think it best matches my needs. Currently I am waiting for CentOS 7 to start with the fresh version but at the end it all comes down to download the latest versions from the repositories, I do not even look at the version numbers. It was a coincident that I found out that 7 is on the way and I decided to wait for it. Hope this helps. Regards, Michael

[PATCH] Finding %{dist}
by Pat Riehecky 12 Jun '14

From: Pat Riehecky <riehecky(a)fnal.gov> This should pull out what I think %{dist} looks like based on the previous commits to git.c.o . At least in theory.

Welcoming CERN Linux Distro team
by Karanbir Singh 11 Jun '14

11 Jun '14

Hi Everyone, We would like to welcome onboard the CERN Linux Distro team ( http://cern.ch/linux ) to the CentOS Core SIG. Thomas Oulevey and Jaroslaw 'Jarek' Polok are going to be bootstrapping the CentOS Community Buildsystem around Koji and helping run it going forward. The community buildsystem is going to be the central place for all source to binary builds used by all efforts other than CentOS Core ( for now ). The initial target is to get a test instance running in the coming weeks, and then work on the git.centos.org integration, with the aim of having the 'production' buildsys online soon. This is the build service that all SIG's and Core SIG builds will consume going forward ( with the exception of CentOS Linux, we have quite a bit of work to do before we can migrate that ). Communications on this effort will be on the centos-devel mailing list ( http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-devel ) and on the #centos-devel irc channel on irc.freenode.net. Hardware resources for the effort have been identified, setup and access is being setup so things can start rolling fairly quickly. Mike McLean and Fabian Arrotin are going to be working with them. You can keep up with Jarek on his google+ page at https://plus.google.com/+JaroslawPolok/ and Thomas tweets at https://twitter.com/thomasnomas ; They both also contribute to the http://linux.web.cern.ch/linux/ blog. Please join me in welcoming Thomas and Jarek to the CentOS Project. - KB -- Karanbir Singh, Project Lead, The CentOS Project +44-207-0999389 | http://www.centos.org/ | twitter.com/CentOS GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc

Questions about the new git.centos.org repos
by Pat Riehecky 11 Jun '14

11 Jun '14

Now that there are repos up at git.centos.org, I was wondering if anyone had a python tool I could use to convert a repo back into a source RPM? Similarly, does anyone know how gitblit handles repo change notifications? I'd love to be notified of updates to some repos or their tags. A programmatic tool for gathering that information would work just as well... I'm not sure which would work better for my workflow. There's a fair chance at various intervals I'd be hitting the site somewhat hard, are there any instructions for mirroring all the parts necessary for package assembly? I'd rather beat up my local mirror than pick on the main page. Open to ideas, Pat -- Pat Riehecky Scientific Linux developer http://www.scientificlinux.org/

RHEL7 srpms
by Morten Stevens 10 Jun '14

10 Jun '14

Hi, I'm confused about this notice: http://ftp.redhat.com/redhat/linux/enterprise/7Server/en/os/README Current sources for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 have been moved to the following location: https://git.centos.org/project/rpms Does CentOS have a location to download all RHEL 7.x SRPMS directly without git? Best regards, Morten
