ksplice and CentOS
by Karanbir Singh 25 Sep '25

25 Sep '25

hi guys, lots of people on this list are keen on contributing to the CentOS effort - and one place where we could, as a group of people, make a massive difference is being able to deliver a ksplice upgrade model. A couple of people have started in silo's to try and get something together but I feel it might be a good time to try and see if we can do somethng as a group. Do we have people on the list who find the idea of rebootless kernel upgrades interesting ? Is there some desire to try and make that happen within the CentOS Ecosystem ? - KB

anaconda dependency calculation?
by Nicholas Byrne 04 Aug '25

04 Aug '25

Hi all, I'm trying to find a tool that calculates all dependencies for a specific package or group of packages for use with CentOS 5 (beta) with the intention of putting together a custom single CD build of CentOS 5. With CentOS 4 i used a python script that used the hdrlist module to find all dependencies which borrowed code from a number of sources. I've looked at yumdownloader and how it checks dependencies (using the --resolve option) but if i pass it the list of packages defined in say the Base and the Core yum groups which generally form an absolute minimal install i end up with about 200 packages. If i do a custom install (using beta 1 disks) and deselect everything i end up with over 300 packages. So i'm guessing anaconda calculates dependencies in a slightly different way, can anyone point me to files/code where i should be looking to find out?

forums + portal for {lang}.centos.org sites
by Karanbir Singh 16 Aug '24

16 Aug '24

Hi, Earlier in the evening today Ralph, Fabian and I had a chat about the present state of the language subsites. This email sort of summarises the main issue ( s/w ). We seem to have run into a slight technical hitch with punbb/fluxbb. They dont support LDAP as a backend. And we had decided a few months back that all new rollouts must have ldap backend so we can rollin CentOS-DS / openldap based backend. So we need to look at alternatives, and since the primary focus of these international sites is going be forums : Here is a shortlist ( if there is anything else that people are aware of, please add to this list ) - phpBB - SMF - Fudforum - phorum - fluxbb Requirements: - Must be able to scale ( couple of hundred thousand msgs ) - Must be able to handle ldap auth ( if it cant, whats involved in writing the ldap-auth portion ) - Must address the specific requirements raised by the present www.centos.org forum users ( Can you please fill this section in ? ) - Must support all languages we need ( pure utf8 support would be good ) - Secure - Skin'able Nice to have: - Capable of running multiple instances from a single deployment - responsive community :D Things we will need to do: - Decide on what s/w to use. - Give the ArtWork people enough time to get the look & feel sorted. - Migrate newbb forums from www.centos.org to $system ( hey, english is a language too :D ). - Migrate fr.centos.org into the final s/w - setup {de/es/ja/it/pt_br}.centos.org Actions: Ralph and Fabian are going to work on setting up a test ldap server, once that is online we will then start by installing into our test-vm-farm the various s/w to eval them. If anyone would like to help, please feel free to jump right in. I'll setup a wiki page for this issue, which might be a good place to track progress. -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : 2522219@icq

CentOS 7 ppc64le (power little endian) rpms, build logs, mock configs
by James O'Connor 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

Here are the first two rounds of CentOS 7 ppc64le rpms, build logs, and mock configs: Round A: http://ppcbootstrap.lon1.centos.org/C7a/ppc64le/ * Built atop Fedora 21 ppc64le VMs * Built from http://vault.centos.org/7.1.1503/os/Source/SPackages/ and c7-ppc64le branch on git.centos.org * Source rpms were temporarily modified to remove circular dependencies during the bootstrap process Round B: http://ppcbootstrap.lon1.centos.org/C7b/ppc64le/ * Built atop Centos 7 ppc64le VMs * Built from http://vault.centos.org/7.1.1503/os/Source/SPackages/ , http://vault.centos.org/7.1.1503/updates/Source/SPackages/ , and c7-ppc64le branch on git.centos.org * noarch rpms were skipped as those will be taken from c7-x86_64 * Only gcc.spec (%global build_ada 0), curl.spec (upstream testcase fix), ghostscript.spec (upstream segfault fix) and nss.spec (upstream fix for expired PayPal cert) were modified. I will provide further details on these alterations on the altarch ppc64le wiki page once that gets created. Feedback is most welcome. You may find jpoc on the #centos-devel and #centos-ppc irc channels. Once the AltArch SIG is officially approved, we will share installable alpha/beta images and rpm repositories. Thanks -James

CentOS 7 liveCD survey
by Fabian Arrotin 28 Nov '15

28 Nov '15

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, While working on the next 7.1511 Live media, I discovered that the size for the actual CentOS 7 LiveCD would be more than 700MB. It's due to some packages being now bigger and bigger, also due to the big Gnome 3.8 -> 3.14 rebase. One obvious package I can remove from the packages manifest (which itself is consuming more and more space) is Firefox. If I remove it from the packages manifest (only for LiveCD, it will obviously stay for the LiveGnome and LiveKDE DVD iso images), it's then back to 650 MB, so that would mean that one would still be able to burn it on a CD. But the real question is then : does that even make sense ? for each release, we're now fighting with disk space constraints, and I'm each time removing packages from that LiveCD image. If we remove Firefox itself, that would mean that such LiveCD would be useful just for people willing to "test" CentOS on their hardware, but that would be a basic Gnome desktop. It builds/runs fine, can be installed too (like before), but I'd like your opinion about this.

announcing content from the sign process
by Karanbir Singh 27 Nov '15

27 Nov '15

hi SIGs are releasing stuff, the Cloud SIG has had a few updates since their initial release, but this content isnt being announced as yet. To work towards this, I am going to plumb in an auto email script that should send out one notice per SIG per day, for days when that SIG has released content. Since the sign, push only runs once a day, it wont be a huge number of emails. As a test bed, I am going to set this up to send these announcements to the CentOS-Devel list ( this list! ), and if everyone feels the format etc is fine, we can then start sending them to the CentOS-Announce list.

Any reason why that hasn't been considered ? I do not know if this has been considered before I joined the Storage Special Interest Group. The SIGs that are part of the CentOS Community are free to provide newer packages from upstream projects, or even projects that are not part of RHEL or its add-ons. A more complete desctiption of what a SIG can provide/do is available on the CentOS wiki at https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup . The RHGS product tracks the upstream Gluster packages pretty close. I do not think there is a need to provide a rebuild of the RHGS packages. That said, if there is anyone interested in providing those, speak up and join the Storage SIG! https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/Storage Thanks, Niels > > On Tue, Nov 10, 2015 at 1:25 AM, C.L.

What Gluster versions would you like to see in the CentOS Storage SIG?
by Niels de Vos 27 Nov '15

27 Nov '15

Hi Gluster users running on CentOS! As you may have heard before, we're planning on providing stable Gluster releases and related packages through the CentOS Storage SIG [0]. We would like to know what version of Gluster and which versions of CentOS are most wanted by our users. The current support for Gluster defines 3 stable releases at the time. This means that 3.7, 3.6 and 3.5 are supported by the Gluster Community. Once 3.8 is released, 3.5 will become unsupported and will not receive any updates anymore. 3.8 is planned to be released early 2016 [1]. We can provide all Gluster packages for CentOS-7 and 6, but CentOS-5 can only get recent versions of the Gluster client. Now, we want to know which combinations our users like to see in the CentOS Storage SIG: - CentOS-7 + GlusterFS 3.7: latest and greatest, will be included - CentOS-6 + GlusterFS 3.7: very much used release, also included - CentOS-7 + GlusterFS 3.6: some users, you? - CentOS-6 + GlusterFS 3.6: some users, you? - CentOS-7 + GlusterFS 3.5: fewer users, you? - CentOS-6 + GlusterFS 3.5: fewer users, you? - CentOS-5 + GlusterFS 3.7 (client only): nobody? - CentOS-5 + GlusterFS 3.6: nobody? - CentOS-5 + GlusterFS 3.5: nobody? Please speak up and let us know what versions you depend on for next few months. You can reply to this email to the list (note that it is x-posted, one mailinglist is sufficient for your reply), directly to me or over IRC in #centos-devel or #gluster. Many thanks, Niels 0. https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/Storage 1. https://www.gluster.org/community/roadmap/

CentOS Atomic Host Updated
by Jason Brooks 24 Nov '15

24 Nov '15

Today we're announcing an update to CentOS Atomic Host (version 7.20151118), a lean operating system designed to run Docker containers, built from standard CentOS 7 RPMs, and tracking the component versions included in Red Hat Enterprise Linux Atomic Host. Please note that this release is based on content derived from the upstream 7.1 release. CentOS Atomic Host is available as a VirtualBox or libvirt-formatted Vagrant box, or as an installable ISO, qcow2 or Amazon Machine image. These images are available for download at cloud.centos.org(http://cloud.centos.org/centos/7/atomic/images/). The backing ostree repo is published to mirror.centos.org(http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/atomic/x86_64/repo). CentOS Atomic Host includes these core component versions: * kernel-3.10.0-229.20.1.el7.x86_64 * cloud-init-0.7.5-10.el7.centos.1.x86_64 * atomic-1.6-6.gitca1e384.el7.x86_64 * kubernetes-1.0.3-0.2.gitb9a88a7.el7.x86_64 * etcd-2.1.1-2.el7.x86_64 * ostree-2015.6-4.atomic.el7.x86_64 * docker-1.8.2-7.el7.centos.x86_64 * flannel-0.2.0-10.el7.x86_64 ## Upgrading If you're running a previous version of CentOS Atomic Host, you can upgrade to the current image by running the following command: $ sudo atomic host upgrade ## Images ### Vagrant CentOS-Atomic-Host-7-Vagrant-Libvirt.box(http://cloud.centos.org/centos/7/at omic/images/CentOS-Atomic-Host-7-Vagrant-Libvirt.box) (409 MB) and CentOS-Atomic-Host-7-Vagrant-Virtualbox.box(http://cloud.centos.org/centos/7 /atomic/images/CentOS-Atomic-Host-7-Vagrant-Virtualbox.box) (421 MB) are Vagrant boxes for Libvirt and Virtualbox providers. The easiest way to consume these images is via the Atlas / Vagrant Cloud setup (see https://atlas.hashicorp.com/centos/boxes/atomic-host(https://atlas.hashicorp .com/centos/boxes/atomic-host). For example, getting the VirtualBox instance up would involve running the following two commands on a machine with vagrant installed: $ vagrant init centos/atomic-host && vagrant up --provider virtualbox ### ISO The installer ISO(http://cloud.centos.org/centos/7/atomic/images/CentOS-Atomic-Host-7-Inst aller.iso) (673 MB) can be used via regular install methods (PXE, CD, USB image, etc.) and uses the Anaconda installer to deliver the CentOS Atomic Host. This allows flexibility to control the install using kickstarts and define custom storage, networking and user accounts. This is the recommended process for getting CentOS Atomic Host onto bare metal machines, or to generate your own image sets for custom environments. ### QCOW2 The CentOS-Atomic-Host-7-GenericCloud.qcow2(http://cloud.centos.org/centos/7/ato mic/images/CentOS-Atomic-Host-7-GenericCloud.qcow2) (934 MB) is suitable for use in on-premise and local virtualized environments.

After sources are released, they're rebuilt and included in new images. After the images are tested by the SIG and deemed ready, we announce them. ## Getting Involved CentOS Atomic Host is produced by the CentOS Atomic SIG(http://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/Atomic), based on upstream work from Project Atomic(http://www.projectatomic.io/). If you'd like to work on testing images, help with packaging, documentation -- join us! The SIG meets weekly on Thursdays at 16:00 UTC in the #centos-devel channel, and you'll often find us in #atomic and/or #centos-devel if you have questions. You can also join the atomic-devel(https://lists.projectatomic.io/mailman/listinfo/atomic-devel) mailing list if you'd like to discuss the direction of Project Atomic, its components, or have other questions. ## Getting Help If you run into any problems with the images or components, feel free to ask on the centos-devel(http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-devel) mailing list. Have questions about using Atomic? See the atomic(https://lists.projectatomic.io/mailman/listinfo/atomic) mailing list or find us in the #atomic channel on Freenode.

Request to join the Cloud Instance SIG for Microsoft Azure
by Stephen Zarkos 24 Nov '15

24 Nov '15

Hi All: As requested, I would like to introduce myself as a representative of Microsoft Azure and request membership in the CentOS Cloud Instance SIG. My formal goal in joining this group is of course to bring community-supported and high-quality CentOS images to Microsoft Azure. At Microsoft I drive the technical collaboration with many of the various Linux distributions that exist in the Azure Gallery - which includes numerous efforts around image creation, testing and support of these images on Azure. I hope to do the same with the CentOS community. My group is also responsible for a few other key components that will be important for this effort, such as the device drivers for Hyper-V/Azure (which already ship with the CentOS kernel), the Azure Linux agent and various others. We work closely with the upstream developers to ensure customers have a great experience running CentOS in Hyper-V/Azure virtualized environments. Having official CentOS images I think will allow us to build and continue to improve on those efforts. Looking forward to working with you all. Please let me know if I should provide more details. Thanks! Steve

Signing and promoting CBS content
by Karanbir Singh 11 Nov '15

11 Nov '15

Hi, Attached here is a macro level overview on how the sign services is getting setup. I've been working on this recently, and its the process being adopted for SIG's moving to release ( eg. RDO folks rely on this for the openstack release work into the Cloud SIG repos ). Couple of highlights : Each box indicates a physical entity; the Sign Box is a HA pair of 2 nodes, dedicated for this purpose. The main sign service is a dedicated machine hosted near the CBS infra for performance reasons. Read this alongside http://www.karan.org/CBS_ContentPromotion.png which lays out what tag's go where and how this maps to buildlogs and the mirror / CDN side of things. The PreFlight testing and Validation steps only do some basic work at the moment, including validating that rpms are not already signed, they come from and are going into the right path maps ( eg. virt sig content going into the /virt/ subdirs etc ), and the rpm headers are valid. Lots of potential to expand on this steps. I will aim to extract these scripts out and into git.centos.org for more eyes and contribution options. The push to buildlogs runs every 2 hrs at this point, and does not include a sign step. buildlogs content is pushed as is, from the right tags, for projects and SIGs that have opted in ( ideally, everyone should! if you are not doing this already please get in touch ). Content for the sign and push to mirror.centos.org runs a report every 48 hrs, and needs a manual ack. In the coming weeks, we will move to perhaps a 12 hr cycle with better round the clock cover.

koji/mock/createrepo_c/pigz packages distributed in CentOS 7 - extras ?
by Jarek Polok 04 Nov '15

04 Nov '15

Hello all, It seems that starting yesterday new packages: koji/mock/createrepo_c/pigz/python-lockfile/python-munch are distributed in CentOS7 Extras repo: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/extras/x86_64/Packages/ I believe all of the above are already provided by EPEL7, so why duplicate these ? I guess that these may be specific versions needed for cbs.centos.org buildsystem and I can see that these are dependencies of centos-packager which also has been added to extras: but then wouldn;t it be better to distribute these via an additional repository - like for SIG provided packages, and not in a repository that is (probably) enabled for most of CentOS users ? It seems to me that this set of packages is targeted at developer community, not at general users community ? Best Regards Jarek __ ------------------------------------------------------- _ Jaroslaw_Polok __________________ CERN - IT/OIS/WLS _ _ http://cern.ch/~jpolok ________ tel_+41_22_767_1834 _ ______________________________________+41_75_411_9487 _

Oracle Cloud and CentOS Cloud Instance SIG
by ajay seetharam 04 Nov '15

04 Nov '15

I would like to join the CentOS Cloud Instance SIG on behalf of the Oracle Cloud team. My background in IT spans 25 years across verticals and Operating Systems. In my current Solution Architect role at Oracle, our team engages with System Integrator, ISV partners and Communities such as CentOS so their technologies and solutions are enabled on exciting new Oracle products and technologies through reference architectures, solution design, best practices and implementation guidance. My current focus area includes Oracle Compute Cloud Services and Oracle Marketplace. Oracle Compute Cloud Service is an Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) offering that provides flexible and scalable compute, block storage, and networking services on Oracle Cloud. Oracle Compute Cloud Service is ideal for customers who want to set up test and development environment in the public cloud, or migrate their on-premises workloads to the public cloud and leverage the benefits of cloud. Oracle customers benefit from Operating System choice to run a variety of workloads in Oracle Compute Cloud Service. The goals of my participation in the CentOS Cloud Instance SIG are to facilitate community built CentOS official images to exist in the oracle Cloud Marketplace and ensure the users have a good experience, in a community supported format. Thanks and Regards, Ajay

Distributions Devroom CFP
by Brian Stinson 02 Nov '15

02 Nov '15

FOSDEM 2016 - Distributions Devroom Call for Participation The Distributions devroom will take place 30 & 31 January, 2016 at FOSDEM, in room K.4.201 at Université Libre de Bruxelles, in Brussels, Belgium. As Linux distributions converge on similar tools, the problem space overlapping different distributions is growing. This standardization across the distributions presents an opportunity to develop generic solutions to the problems of aggregating, building, and maintaining the pieces that go into a distribution. We welcome submissions targeted at developers interested in issues unique to distributions, especially in the following topics: - Cross-distribution collaboration on common issues, eg: content distribution and documentation - Working with vendor relationships (eg. cloud providers, non-commodity hardware vendors etc ) - The future of distributions, emerging trends and evolving user demands from the idea of a platform - User experience management ( onboarding new users, facilitating technical growth, user to contribution transitions etc ) - Building trust and code relationships with the upstream components of a distribution - Solving traditional problems like package management, and content management (eg. rpm/dpkg/ostree/coreos ) - Contributor resource management, centralised trust management, key trust etc - Integration technologies like installers, deployment facilitation ( eg. cloud contextualisation ) Submissions may be in the form of 30-55 minute talks, panel sessions, round-table discussions, Birds of a Feather (BoF) sessions or lightning talks. Dates ------ Submission Deadline: 10th Dec 2015 Acceptance Notification: 15th Dec 2015 Final Schedule Posted: 17th Dec 2015 How to submit -------------- Visit https://penta.fosdem.org/submission/FOSDEM16 1.) If you do not have an account, create one here 2.) Click 'Create Event' 3.) Enter your presentation details 4.) Be sure to select the Distributions Devroom track! 5.) Submit What to include --------------- - The title of your submission - A 1-paragraph Abstract - A longer description including the benefit of your talk to your target audience - Approximate length / type of submission (talk, BoF, ...) - Links to related websites/blogs/talk material (if any) If you have any questions, feel free to contact the devroom organizers: distributions-devroom(a)lists.fosdem.org (https://lists.fosdem.org/listinfo/distributions-devroom) Cheers!

Vagrant box builds are failing in cbs
by Lalatendu Mohanty 02 Nov '15

02 Nov '15

Hi, Looks like there is some issue with cbs i.e. image-factory, because all vagrant builds are failing for me. The builds are failing for source files which had built fine previously. For example build [1] is using the same source files (kickstart files etc) as build [2] but it failed where as build [2] has succeeded previously.
