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

NFV SIG - update
by Dave Neary 30 May '17

30 May '17

Hi, There has been a recent resurgence of interest in the NFV SIG, and in the interest of keeping the momentum going, I would like to step aside as SIG char, and recommend that Tom Herbert take over. Tom has taken on the packaging and building of VPP and DPDK-accelerated OVS for OPNFV, and has been active in the SIG in recent weeks, and I think he will help add the structure that has been sorely lacking from me in recent months. I'm not sure what the process is for replacing a SIG chair - can someone let us know, please? Thanks, Dave. -- Dave Neary - NFV/SDN Community Strategy Open Source and Standards, Red Hat - http://community.redhat.com Ph: +1-978-399-2182 / Cell: +1-978-799-3338

Duffy Source Code
by Julien Pivotto 05 Dec '16

05 Dec '16

Hi all, As per our policies: https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup > All code produced within the SIG must be compatible with a FOSS license > presently used by CentOS; if a new license is wanted, again, please > consult with the Devteam member I think that it would be valuable that the SIG in charge of the infra releases the source code of Duffy. It works really well and might be used by other people. I did not find the source code anywhere, sorry if I missed it. Thanks, -- (o- Julien Pivotto //\ Open-Source Consultant V_/_ Inuits - https://www.inuits.eu

LIS vs hyperv-daemons for Centos
by Praveen Kumar 30 Nov '16

30 Nov '16

Hi, Past 2 days we are trying to debug why our live centos images[0] is not working with hyperV and facing issue similar to [1]. After reading I was confuse that should we need to add Linux Integration Services (LIS) also during our live images creation or hyperv-daemons would be enough for us[2]. I tried to include hyperv-daemons package and even kvpd service running but still communication not happening from the VM. I might be missing some piece and happy to provide more info if required to debug it.

Update on status of CentOS Community Container Pipeline
by Bamacharan Kundu 28 Nov '16

28 Nov '16

Hi, Here is update for the work done recently in CentOS Community Container Pipeline. * Containerized Workers for resolving conflicts in writing the configs by multiple workers. * Triggering docker linter before each build with linter worker to notify user about problems in target file to be built and have a feed back. * Jenkins jobs triggering dependency images on built of dependent images. * Builds were getting failed without proper logs, we solved that with necessary openshift build configuration. In the coming days, we will be focusing on: * Set weekly scans for the images present in registry.centos.org. * Scaling out OpenShift nodes for speeding up container build rate. * Fixing All in one and multi node setup for proper installation and running. Regards Bamacharan Kundu

cbs.centos.org is building against CR repository
by Thomas Oulevey 25 Nov '16

25 Nov '16

Dear All, Since this morning, 08:30 UTC, all koji buildroot for CentOS 7 have the CR repository enabled. Few notes : - For multi-arch SIGs, until arch specific CR is populated your buildroot will be different on a per arch basis but will NOT fail. We are looking into a better way to handle this. - The plan is to leave this repository enabled by default for the lifetime of a SIG target as it will be empty until we need it again. - Please report any issue you may find on http://bugs.centos.org. thanks, -- Thomas Oulevey
