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

Request for feedback: CentOS-Atomic container
by Karanbir Singh 25 Sep '17

25 Sep '17

hi Alpha2: registry.centos.org/kbsingh/centos-atomic:7-alpha2 The CentOS Atomic Container is a minimal ( 30MB on disk ) image that can be used to host static content, and small footprint content that does not need the entire CentOS Linux Base image. This is also not meant to replace CentOS Linux Base image as the default, we want to make it available as an additional container base for apps that find it useful. The main highlight is that it does not contain yum, but has microdnf. I am looking for feedback, and some wider testing as well as recommendations on howto further reduce size, before we move to release. You can consume this as : docker run -t -i \ registry.centos.org/kbsingh/centos-atomic:7-alpha2 \ /bin/bash regards -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc

Disk size on Vagrant image
by Jeff Sheltren 12 Sep '17

12 Sep '17

I have some development projects that require a large amount of disk on the VM, and are running into issues with the current centos/7 Vagrant box. Is it possible to increase the disk size of the Vagrant image to 100, or even 200 GB? Since this is a sparse image, I don't believe the change will have any affect on people using less disk space, it will only use up as much space on the host system as is in use on the VM. Laurențiu, what do you think? Thanks, Jeff

kick starting duffy2 dev on github
by Karanbir Singh 02 Sep '17

02 Sep '17

hi everyone, I've started working on duffy2 here : https://github.com/kbsingh/duffy2 - there is a base framework in place there that should give you an idea on how this all comes together, I will keep pushing bits - but this will likely get major momentum once we are done with 7.1708 Everyone is welcome to come join the effort, but I would highly recommend joining the ci-users list to track what is going on. We will have no private meetings about this, all conversation to be kept to the ci-users list, bugs.centos.org and the github repo itself. regards -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc

Plan for releasing CentOS CR into CBS and CI
by Brian Stinson 31 Aug '17

31 Aug '17

Hi Folks, We've had a few discussions around how to handle releasing CR (https://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories/CR) over the past few days. When we last checked in, there was still a bit of work going on building and testing pre-release CR (the QA team has been hard at work), and the altarch builds were still in progress. There are 2 ways the release might play out: - If the altarch (aarch64, and ppc64{,le}) builds are finished, and we are otherwise ready: CBS and CI will be seeded from the mirrors just like usual, and CR will be available at roughly the same time as the rest of the mirror network - If the altarch builds are not yet ready, the CentOS QA team may decide to release x86_64 ahead of the other arches. In that case, we will wait for ppc and aarch64 but still seed CI and CBS together as soon as the altarch builds are ready. If there are any questions, feel free to comment here. As always we will post updates as we move forward. Cheers! -- Brian Stinson

missing rpms in CR
by Jacco Ligthart 27 Aug '17

27 Aug '17

Hi, when looking through the recently released CR rpm set, I think I miss these RPMs: scap-security-guide scap-workbench virt-who as far as I can see, these used to be part of 7.1611, were updated on git.centos.org for 7.1708, but were not build (no directory on buildlogs) and are not in the CR set.

clearing out SIG content / trimming obsoleted content
by Karanbir Singh 24 Aug '17

24 Aug '17

hi with 7.1708 almost here, now would be a good time for the SIG's to think through if they want to lose existing obsoleted code from mirror.centos.org and have it moved to vault. When we do a new release, the tree for this version is built up manually and then pushed, so its a good convenient time to think about what the users are looking at, and perhaps trim the repos ( we typically will do this for centosplus/extras etc as well ) please get in touch with Brian or Thomas or myself for details, ideally open a request on bugs.centos.org/ regards -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc

New CentOS Atomic Release and Kubernetes System Containers Now Available
by Jason Brooks 21 Aug '17

21 Aug '17

Last week, the CentOS Atomic SIG released an updated version (https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/Atomic/Download) of CentOS Atomic Host (7.1707), 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. The release, which came as part of the monthly CentOS release stream, was a modest one, including only a single glibc bugfix update (https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2017-July/022505.html) The next Atomic Host release will be based on the RHEL 7.4 source code (https://seven.centos.org/2017/08/centos-linux-7-1708-based-on-rhel-7-4-sour…) and will include support for overlayfs container storage, among other enhancements. Outside of the Atomic Host itself, the SIG has updated its Kubernetes container images to be usable as system containers (http://www.projectatomic.io/blog/2016/09/intro-to-system-containers/) What's more, in addition to the Kubernetes 1.5.x-based containers that derive from RHEL, the Atomic SIG is now producing packages and containers that provide the current 1.7.x version of Kubernetes. ## Containerized Master The downstream release of CentOS Atomic Host ships without the kubernetes-master package built into the image. You can install the master kubernetes components (apiserver, scheduler, and controller-manager) as system containers, using the following commands: # atomic install --system --system-package=no --name kube-apiserver registry.centos.org/centos/kubernetes-apiserver:latest # atomic install --system --system-package=no --name kube-scheduler registry.centos.org/centos/kubernetes-scheduler:latest # atomic install --system --system-package=no --name kube-controller-manager registry.centos.org/centos/kubernetes-controller-manager:latest ## Kubernetes 1.7.x The CentOS Virt SIG is now producing Kubernetes 1.7.x rpms, available through this yum repo (https://github.com/CentOS/CentOS-Dockerfiles/blob/master/kubernetes-sig/mas…) The Atomic SIG is maintaining system containers based on these rpms that can be installed as as follows: ### on your master # atomic install --system --system-package=no --name kube-apiserver registry.centos.org/centos/kubernetes-sig-apiserver:latest # atomic install --system --system-package=no --name kube-scheduler registry.centos.org/centos/kubernetes-sig-scheduler:latest # atomic install --system --system-package=no --name kube-controller-manager registry.centos.org/centos/kubernetes-sig-controller-manager:latest ### on your node(s) # atomic install --system --system-package=no --name kubelet registry.centos.org/centos/kubernetes-sig-kubelet:latest # atomic install --system --system-package=no --name kube-proxy registry.centos.org/centos/kubernetes-sig-proxy:latest Both the 1.5.x and 1.7.x sets of containers have been tested with the kubernetes ansible scripts (https://github.com/kubernetes/contrib/tree/master/ansible) provided in the upstream contrib repository, and function as drop-in replacements for the installed rpms. If you prefer to run Kubernetes from installed rpms, you can layer the master components onto your Atomic Host image using rpm-ostree package layering with the command: `atomic host install kubernetes-master`. The containers referenced in these systemd service files are built in and hosted from the CentOS Community Container Pipeline (https://wiki.centos.org/ContainerPipeline) based on Dockerfiles from the CentOS-Dockerfiles repository (https://github.com/CentOS/CentOS-Dockerfiles/tree/master/kubernetes) ## Download CentOS Atomic Host CentOS Atomic Host is available as a VirtualBox or libvirt-formatted Vagrant box, or as an installable ISO, qcow2 or Amazon Machine image. For links to media, see the CentOS wiki (https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/Atomic/Download) ## 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 ## Release Cycle The CentOS Atomic Host image follows the upstream Red Hat Enterprise Linux Atomic Host cadence. 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.

cloud-init differs between git and buildlogs

Hi, I found another instance of srpm on buildlogs not matching with git: cloud-init This time around the git version is newer though. If this package is going to make CR, we should probably rebuild it with the CentOS patches included. Jacco PS, an entry in the changelog in the specfile would also be nice

OpenShift Origin 3.6 is released on CentOS
by Troy Dawson 18 Aug '17

18 Aug '17

Hello, We have officially released OpenShift Origin 3.6 on CentOS. You should be able to install it via our generic repo, which tracks the latest release. yum install centos-release-openshift-origin yum install origin-clients (or whichever package you want) You should also be able to install it via our release specific repo yum install centos-release-openshift-origin36 yum install origin-clients (or whichever package you want) https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/PaaS/OpenShift-Quickstart One item of note. The new 3.6.0 packages have a release of 1.0.c4dd4cf as opposed to the release naming scheme we've used previously (1.el7 for example). The builds are now being built automatically. The origin spec file, by default, builds with the shortened git hash in the release field. All the previous builds were done manually, and I manually changed the release field to be what it was. If this is a real concern, we can change the automation to fix it. But right now we are working on automated testing, so we can get origin packages released quicker. So even if we do decide to change the release naming scheme back, it will take a while. Thank you to everyone who helped get this release out. Especially to Ari, and everyone else who helped with the automation. Troy Dawson

Hi, I noticed a difference between ipa in git.centos.org and the src.rpm used on buildlogs.centos.org. my guess is that the latest manual debranding was not pushed to git. as a second item: any idea when we could have access to signed versions of the src.rpms? I know that they might still change, but it would help me for the redsleeve build effort if I had access to the current (signed) set. Jacco

Export licensing for crypto
by Thomas F Herbert 11 Aug '17

Vpp package includes an accelerated software IPSecusing the multi-buffer library.

Feedback about the wiki.centos website
by Sufiyan Shaikh 06 Aug '17

06 Aug '17

Hi, I am Sufiyan Shaikh.

Release notes of centos genericcloud image?
by 杨成伟 05 Aug '17

05 Aug '17

Hi list, I found centos genericcloud image for openstack at https://docs.openstack.org/image-guide/obtain-images.html#centos but I didn't found any release note for these images, so I didn't known what's difference between genericcloud image and the official centos release, e.g. centos 6.8, 7.2 release and etc. Is there any wiki/doc/releasenote? -- Thanks, Chengwei

[infra] DevCloud migration (users, please read)
by Fabian Arrotin 03 Aug '17

03 Aug '17

Hi, Some of you actually use our DevCloud (https://wiki.centos.org/DevCloud) as a playground/sandbox environment when willing to test some deployments/scratch operations. We want you to notice that we'll completely refresh that environment next week, so DevCloud itself will be unavailable during the reinstall phase, but also all VMs currently running in that environment will also be destroyed (it's a "cloud" and for dev/testing so everything could be considered ephemeral ) Details of the migration: - setting up two new dedicated storage boxes (each using SSD disks for faster storage backend for the provisioned VMs) - reinstalling the hypervisors from CentOS 6 to CentOS 7 - migrating to RDO/OpenStack (Ocata release) - DevCloud users rights in OpenStack will be synced from ACO (https://accounts.centos.org) Due to the fact that we also have to remove some physical components from some nodes to other nodes, we'll have to shutdown the whole environment. The maintenance window is scheduled for """"Tuesday August 1st, 2:00 pm UTC time"""". You can convert to local time with $(date -d '2017-08-01 14:00 UTC') We'll do our best to keep the maintenance window as short as possible, but we also have a lot of things to reconfigure behind the scene (including new network switches). We'll announce when the new DevCloud environment will be available and ready to be used. All users are so encouraged to save what they want/need before that date, as everything will disappear. Should you have questions, feel free to contact me on irc, or answer to this thread -- Fabian Arrotin The CentOS Project | http://www.centos.org gpg key: 56BEC54E | twitter: @arrfab

Adding s390x as an alternative architecture
by Jason DeTiberus 01 Aug '17

01 Aug '17

With the current efforts under way with aarch64 and ppc64le, I would like to suggest that s390x also be added as an alternative architecture. Obviously hardware would be the biggest obstacle, but I do not see any reason why we couldn't get started with just emulated hardware. -- Jason DeTiberus

Personal kernel, drivers mesa-test and winehq
by Andreas Benzler 01 Aug '17

01 Aug '17

Hello Guys, in the mean while i compiled and tested fallow http://centos.cms4all.org/repo/7/kernel/ Kernel 4.12.4, feels more stable as 4.12.0 (+ RadeonSI Flags) Drivers Libdrm 2.4.82, added a patch from git (intel and dri2) xorg-x11-drv-intel Added btrfs-progs 4.12. to my driver section, because fedora coopr doesn't compile i686 for centos. By the next release of intel drivers I rename back intel-vaapi-driver to be better backward compatible with other packages. Wine Update to wine-2.13 (Staging), allready tested with steam & WoW Mesa-Test I think that is the second time, when i try release candidate. But Why? Wanne know is is possible as i did it the last time: - Mesa 12.2.0-rc2 - against LLVM 5.0 RC1 And "Yes" :-) it do. After some simple refactoring LLVM 5.0 needs http://centos.cms4all.org/repo/7/drivers/ http://centos.cms4all.org/repo/7/llvm/ (because of cmake3.i686) Mesa Needs http://centos.cms4all.org/repo/7/drivers/ http://centos.cms4all.org/repo/7/mesa/ to compile, or you take my driver section and mesa-test as it is. Sincerely Andy
