Gitlab CI/CI usage quota for SIGs (please read)
by Fabian Arrotin 02 Sep '25

02 Sep '25

Hi all SIGs! As we all switched (for SIGs) to gitlab.com in the last months (and final archive was done for all /rpms/* and other projects still on pagure/git.centos.org) some SIGs started to explore other gitlab features, like CI/CD. We got this week a warning from Gitlab about our CentOS project almost reaching the allocated quota in our sponsored account there, but it should be reset on monthly basis and it shouldn't be blocking any of your CI/CD pipelines for this week. But we still need to verify about which SIGs are (ab)using the "compute minutes" allocated for our account and find a better/optimized way to let you still use CI/CD features, but maybe by offloading to some dedicated runners we'd spin up in our own infra . I just created yesterday ticket https://gitlab.com/CentOS/infra/tracker/-/issues/1743 to track this (but need some investigation and time which I had not planned to spent on gitlab for now) Actually the top 3 projects/groups under CentOS org on gitlab using computes minutes for August are : - https://gitlab.com/CentOS/automotive/src/automotive-image-builder (~17200 minutes so far) - https://gitlab.com/CentOS/Hyperscale/rpms/systemd (~5400 minutes so far) - https://gitlab.com/CentOS/kmods/rpms/kernel (~1300 minutes so far) We clearly see an exponential growth for compute minutes usage, but we'd also remind each SIG/project hosted there to be "good citizen" and so think that they are quotas in place that would eventually impact other hosted projects. -- Fabian Arrotin The CentOS Project | https://www.centos.org gpg key: 17F3B7A1 | @arrfab[@fosstodon.org]

[Infra] - Planned outage : cbs.centos.org / lists.centos.org
by Fabian Arrotin 02 Sep '25

02 Sep '25

Due to hardware consolidation (and reuse to prepare upcoming DC move), we'll have to migrate some VMs to different hypervisors. Publicly accessible VMs that SIGs are interacting with and that are impacted by that operation (other internal VMs will be also migrated but no impact for SIGs) : - https://cbs.centos.org - https://lists.centos.org Migration is scheduled for """"Tuesday September 2nd, 6:00 am UTC time"""". You can convert to local time with $(date -d '2025-09-02 06:00 UTC') The expected "downtime" is estimated to ~30 minutes , time to shutdown VM/service, migrate definition and storage to different hypervisor, redefine VM and restart it. Thanks for your understanding and patience. on behalf of the Infra team, -- Fabian Arrotin The CentOS Project | https://www.centos.org gpg key: 17F3B7A1 | @arrfab[@fosstodon.org]

by Shaun McCance 30 Aug '25

30 Aug '25

https://blog.centos.org/2025/08/centos-board-welcomes-david-duncan/ CentOS is excited to welcome David Duncan to the Board of Directors. The CentOS Board is made up of 10 members, nominated by the community and appointed by a vote of the board. Thomas Oulevey recently decided to step down. We'd like to thank Thomas for his many years of work on the Board. David Duncan is a prominent and respected member of the CentOS community with a deep background in open source. He has been a valuable contributor to the project for many years, with contributions to the Cloud SIG and Hyperscale SIG, as well as many contributions to Fedora. As a long-time open source contributor and current Principal Architect of Partner Solutions Architecture at AWS, David brings extensive experience in both upstream and downstream Linux ecosystems. David has worked on publishing CentOS and Fedora Cloud Images on AWS Marketplace, managing Fedora Cloud Editions, and implementing strategic services like Red Hat OpenShift on AWS. His experience creating strategic initiatives for Linux distribution partners and managing complex stakeholder relationships will bring great insights to the CentOS Baord of Directores.

git.centos.org to gitlab migration happening on August 25th
by Fabian Arrotin 25 Aug '25

25 Aug '25

As announced recently (see https://lists.centos.org/hyperkitty/list/devel@lists.centos.org/thread/BCWA…) , I'd like to announce that we'll power off git.centos.org next week , on August 25th The way we'll proceed : - ensure all git projects hosted on https://git.centos.org will be mirrored to gitlab (they are but that will be last step) - same for lookaside content actually hosted on https://git.centos.org/sources (and already mirrored to https://src.sigs.centos.org) - all git projects imported to https://gitlab.com/CentOS/archives/git.centos.org will also be marked as "archived" (so read-only) - we'll switch IP and https://src.sigs.centos.org) will start answering also on the git.centos.org dns name (already added in the TLS cert SAN) At this stage all SIGs still relying on pagure (git.centos.org) should have migrated to gitlab.com/CentOS so no impact. Also worth knowing that process to upload to lookaside cache will not change (reason why new lookaside cache server will also answer on git.centos.org hostname) -- Fabian Arrotin The CentOS Project | https://www.centos.org gpg key: 17F3B7A1 | @arrfab[@fosstodon.org]

2025-08-12 - CentOS Public Board Meeting
by Amy Marrich 12 Aug '25

12 Aug '25

Hi Everyone, Our next board meeting will take place at 20:00 UTC on Wednesday: `date -d "2025-08-12 20:00 UTC"` If you would like to attend please send me an email to amy(a)redhat.com ( please do not reply to @centos-devel or use another email address) and you will receive a link to a meeting room with a passcode, 1 hour before the meeting takes place. The agenda can be checked at (work in progress) : https://hackmd.io/HkW7pI7kS7ymiFgfkB6VWg As a reminder we will enforce few rules : * Wait to be recognized by the Chair before speaking * Respect the Chair when told your time to speak is over - this will allow us to remain on agenda, and complete the meetings in the allotted time * In the event that there are Board-confidential topics, these will be put at the end of the meeting, in Executive Session, and guests will be asked to leave. We hope to minimize these items, but they do sometimes happen. The most common scenarios in which this may happen are personnel issues, or information that Red Hat wishes to share with the Board, but is not yet public. * Muting of participants, or, in extreme situations, ejection from the meeting, is at the sole discretion of the Chair. * Meetings will be recorded, and published to YouTube (possibly with edits/redaction, as approved by the Directors). Thus, by joining the meeting you consent to have your presence at the meeting, and anything you say during the meeting, made public. I hope some of you can join. thanks, *Amy Marrich* She/Her/Hers Principal Technical Marketing Manager - Cloud Platforms Red Hat, Inc <https://www.redhat.com/> amy(a)redhat.com Mobile: 954-818-0514 Slack: amarrich IRC: spotz

Official method to programmatically extract CentOS Stream 8/9/10 security advisories
by vjindal＠microsoft.com 06 Aug '25

06 Aug '25

Hello Red Hat Team, We are working on surfacing CVEs from customer machines to our admin portal and wanted to clarify the correct approach for CentOS Stream. Since CentOS Stream 8, 9, and 10 do not have separate CVE advisories published, is there any official or recommended way to programmatically extract security advisories or CVE data applicable to CentOS Stream - 8, 9, 10? If not, is mapping advisories from the corresponding RHEL versions the only supported method for identifying applicable CVEs? Any guidance or documentation reference would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

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?
