A project calendar
by Karanbir Singh 11 Dec '14

11 Dec '14

Hi There is quite a lot of stuff going on and not all of it is easily visible to everyone. The way to perhaps address that is to setup a project calendar that people can sync against and look at regularly. And more win if we can have it slightly open ended, allowing people / projects / sig's to contribute events into that cal. To that extent Stephen Smoogen introduced me to Pierre-Yves Chibo who runs the fedocal effort, and they have graciously agreed to set something up for CentOS as well. Stephen I know is on this list already, I've requested Pierre to join ( he might have done so already ). Firstly looking for comments on the idea / plan - and then for options on implemention, publishing and consumption of the calendar.

cloud-init in CentOS
by Sam Kottler 02 Dec '14

02 Dec '14

During the cloud instance SIG meeting today we talked about future plans for cloud-init in CentOS. Right now cloud-init is included as part of EPEL and that's where most CentOS users consume it from. The problem is that cloud-init and related bits are critical for building images to run on a public or private cloud, and we need to build early guest initialization tools into the cloud images we produce. Ideally this does not include adding EPEL or packages from EPEL which have not been rebuilt in our build systems. So, the proposal that there's general consensus upon within the SIG is to maintain cloud-init, its dependencies, and any related packages on git.centos.org and rebuild them ourselves. I'm one of the maintainers in EPEL so I offered to maintain the git repos for CentOS, anyone else who would like to be involved in more than welcome to step up. Thoughts, questions, concerns? -s

Centos-7 32 Bit Questions
by Bob Lightfoot 03 Oct '14

03 Oct '14

Dear Johnny Hughes and others: I've spent the morning ereading thru the mailing list archives from June and July while my Centos 7 machine mock user ran a mock --init using the mock.cfg found in the 7.00.02 kernel folder. I have a server running C6 at this time that won't support 64 bit, it was built before Y2K believe it or not. I saw some reference to a git repository and the need to rebuild some packages. I've used mock a fair amount recently and would love to assiste if there is work needing done. Sincerely, Bob Lightfoot

pending updates notification on login
by Karanbir Singh 24 Sep '14

24 Sep '14

hi, I'd really like to have something where a user, on login to the vm or machine instance is told 'you have XX pending updates'. the data can come from a yum-plugin writing something somewhere ( so its not a case of running yum on each login ). Who wants to take a stab at writing something for this ? - KB -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc

CentOS6 & CentOS7 on PowerKVM/ppc64
by Rishi 12 Sep '14

12 Sep '14

Dear List, I would like to express interest in running CentOS7 & probably CentOS6 production servers on ppc64 architecture. With OpenPower we have access to PowerKVM and want to understand current progress around this. Ubuntu is found to be working as ppc64el. I found blog entry http://www.karan.org/blog/2014/06/12/can-we-deliver-a-powerpc-build-for-cen… which refers to a mailchain of last month http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2014-June/010625.html followed by http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=7236 Let me know if we can help in any way to get it general available. Regards, Rushikesh

C6 to 7 upgrade tool testing & documentation
by Bert 06 Sep '14

06 Sep '14

Hi I've created a Yum repo definition for the 6 to 7 upgrade tools, installed the tools, run the pre-upgrade assistant and can report back that the assistant ran OK. I guess I'll now wait for the preupgrade-assistant-contents-0.5.13-1.0.4 rpm that Manuel mentioned. Any ETA on that? Cheers, Bert

The package is there and if I install it manually before calling yum, everything installs and works fine. A metadata problem, perhaps? -Chemal
