centos-packager update for Fedora 31?
by Matthias Runge 04 Jan '20

04 Jan '20

Hi there, is there an updated centos-packager version somewhere, that works with Fedora 31? sudo dnf install centos-packager Last metadata expiration check: 1:35:13 ago on Thu 02 Jan 2020 05:30:08 CET. Error: Problem: package centos-packager-0.5.5-2.fc28.noarch requires python-centos, but none of the providers can be installed - conflicting requests - nothing provides python-urllib3 needed by python-centos-0.1.1-2.fc28.noarch - nothing provides python-lockfile needed by python-centos-0.1.1-2.fc28.noarch - nothing provides python-munch needed by python-centos-0.1.1-2.fc28.noarch (try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages) Best, Matthias

CentOS Stream: Respin and new kernel features
by Brian Stinson 04 Jan '20

04 Jan '20

Hi Folks, First a bit of administrivia: If you have installed CentOS Stream from the initial spin, please be sure that you have centos-release-stream installed on your system. We had a bug in that compose that caused centos-release-stream to not get laid out on-disk at install time. Please run: `dnf install centos-release-stream` followed by `dnf update` For this respin of CentOS Stream we want to highlight new work in the kernel that enables Pressure Stall Information accounting: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/accounting/psi.html Give this a test! If there are comments related to this feature, feel free to start a discussion here on centos-devel. The latest CentOS Stream content is still seeding to the mirror network, but we expect it to coalesce over the next days. You can download install DVDs from the download page: https://www.centos.org/download/ A final note about CentOS Linux 8.1.1911: we are working diligently to get this ready for release. Stay tuned here for more information. We've included much of the same content as 8.1.1911 in this CentOS Stream respin both for your comments, and to help us promote CentOS Stream as a continuous feed of new features. Cheers! -- Brian Stinson

Re: [CentOS-devel] Minutes for CentOS Board of Directors 2019-11-13 Meeting
by Patrick Laimbock 03 Jan '20

03 Jan '20

Hi Karsten, Thank you for the update. > Topics covered in the meeting and via email are discussed below, and > remain open on the Board’s rolling agenda for future conversation and > actions: > > 1. Board membership: > 1. The Board has been considering for some time adjusting the > membership of the Board, in particular by adding new Directors. > Discussions with potential new Directors will begin. That's great news. Will the process be similar to how it's done in the Fedora Project [1]? So with a public list of nominees, published interview with each nominee and public voting results? Is there a way for the Community to (self-)nominate? For better Community coverage perhaps CentOS Board related postings could also be sent to the centos-announce and centos mailinglists? Thanks, Patrick [1] https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/program_management/elections/

CentOS Linux 8.0.1905 Continuous Release Populated
by Brian Stinson 26 Dec '19

26 Dec '19

Hi Folks, We've populated CentOS Linux 8.0.1905 with content from the upcoming 8.1.1911 GA Release: https://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories/CR This includes only the GA content at this time (0-day updates are still pending). One of the major things we're working on is matching the x86_64 multilib content set with upstream, be prepared for changes to i686 packages that may be removed at release time for CentOS Linux. As usual, this content takes a little while to make it out to the mirror network, but it should coalesce shortly. On behalf of the CentOS team: Happy testing, and Happy *C*hristmas *R*elease -- Brian Stinson brian(a)bstinson.com

CPE Weekly: 2019-12-20
by Aoife Moloney 20 Dec '19

20 Dec '19

Hi everyone, Welcome to the CPE team weekly project update mail! Important Note: Please note there will be no weekly emails over the holiday period of 23rd December 2019 - 2nd January 2020*. The next CPE weekly email will be sent on Friday 10th January 2020. As you may be aware, either from the CPE weekly emails or from previous years, Red Hat has a mandatory shutdown period between Christmas and New Year in many countries. This allows most associates to celebrate the holiday season with friends and family and recharge their batteries after a busy year. Multiple Red Hat teams will be observing this period, including Fedora & CentOS infrastructure teams, and we want to raise awareness that availability will be minimal during this time. *While the formal shutdown period ends on the 2nd of January 2020, many people will not be back until Monday the 6th of January 2020. As all of our team members are also passionate Community members, there may be some coverage, but this is not guaranteed and will be on a best effort basis. Any coverage offered will ultimately be at the personal choice of the individual during their time off. We want to take this time to wish you and yours a healthy and happy Christmas period and a most prosperous New Year. We look forward to working closely with you over the coming year! Background: The Community Platform Engineering group is the Red Hat team combining IT and release engineering from Fedora and CentOS. Our goal is to keep core servers and services running and maintained, build releases, and other strategic tasks that need more dedicated time than volunteers can give. For better communication, we will be giving weekly reports to the CentOS and Fedora communities about the general tasks and work being done. Also for better communication between our groups we have created #redhat-cpe on Freenode IRC! Please feel free to catch us there, a mail has landed on both the CentOS and Fedora devel lists with context here. High Level Project Updates: CentOS The CR variant from the Stream composes, seems to work, 8.1.1911 will use a similar variant to populate the CR repo on the mirrors The team are also still working on preparing the next migration to wiki.centos.org www.centos.org Forums The team have started new ansible roles to automate deploy + upgrade of those migrated services We are still finishing templates for mailman ansible role (new look with community members) Working on koji (cbs.dev) to see when we can import 8.1 content to let SIGs build against/for .el8 and .el8s (Stream) The team are still investigating an Ansible upgrade for centos (currently on 2.6.20 and needs testing with 2.9) and then also with .el8 roles compatibility Fedora: General Updates Nagios plugins were fixed to work on EL8/F31 Support was added for fedora messaging wire format to jms-messaging plugin There is one prerequisite:RabbitMQ PR needs to be merged first Other work this week with RabbitMQ includes: An issue in RabbitMQ jms-messaging plugin PR was fixed Two new PR’s in Anitya The issue in the-new-hotness was also fixed when it stopped consuming messages - it was caused by empty version and the fix for this already in Anitya master The team deployed distgit-bugzilla-sync script in openshift Pagure Updates We also worked on pagure-dist-git PR review/merges this week The team cleaned up the bugzilla override patches for pagure-dist-git https://pagure.io/pagure-dist-git/pull-request/82 We modified output of pagure-dist-git/scripts/pagure_poc.py to include assignee information https://pagure.io/pagure-dist-git/pull-request/90 We updated distgit_bugzilla_sync/script.py to read the assignee information from above instead of fedora-scm-requests https://pagure.io/Fedora-Infra/distgit-bugzilla-sync/pull-request/40 We fixed mdapi headers for CORS: https://pagure.io/mdapi/pull-request/93 And they are already reviewed and merged :) We also wrote script to read assignee information from fedora-scm-requests and added it to dist-git Tiger Team Updates: OSBS Issue deploying the aarch64 cluster.

Self Introduction: Carl George
by Carl George 19 Dec '19

19 Dec '19

Howdy y'all! I'd like to introduce myself to the community. My name is Carl. I was born and raised in Texas. I served in the U.S. Army for seven years. After I left the military, I worked for Rackspace for eight years. I was recently hired by Red Hat to work on CentOS Stream. During my time I Rackspace, I ran the IUS project. That naturally led me to get involved in the Fedora and EPEL communities. I enjoy RPM packaging, collaborating with upstream projects, and enabling users to accomplish their missions. I'm looking forward to helping make CentOS Stream a success. --- Carl George

During that time, some operators will be monitoring tickets and services for large scale outages, but will not be active on IRC or email. The ability of the operators to fix problems is also limited because some operations require staff who will be away. People on duty will do what they can to repair and maintain services but do not give any ETA on how long it will take for it to be done. If you are making changes to infrastructure during this time, please treat it like a ‘frozen’ period. Unless it is an emergency repair, do not push changes without a review from a main system administrator. We would encourage you to bump your ticket or request early in the New Year (full service resumes January 6th) for our attention, otherwise we will work through the backlog of requests. We wish you and yours a happy holiday season and look forward to working with you in collaboration throughout 2020 and beyond. Comments? Suggestions? Feedback? Let Us Know!

Agenda for CentOS Board of Directors meeting for 2019-12-13
by Karsten Wade 13 Dec '19

13 Dec '19

On Wednesday 18 December 2019, the CentOS Board of Directors will hold it's last meeting of the 2019 calendar year. Below is the agenda for that meeting that can be shared with the community and wider public. FYI, the "consent agenda" are items that have been discussed on mailing list or another forum where the Directors have reached consensus. This consent agenda is a way to capture and formalize those decisions, and to give Directors a final chance to bring an item up for discussion in a meeting before the decision is final. ** *Public agenda* *** 1. Looking at if Community Platform Engineering (CPE) can begin to build and release CentOS Linux 8 and CentOS Stream into various public clouds. 2. Review of signing and release solutions for SIGs in the new year. 3. Rolling (last from 2019-11-13): 1. Any other topics aka “What other things do you want on our key initiatives list for 2020?” 2. New branding work underway 1. Website update work: https://github.com/areguera/centos-style-websites 2. Framework proposed into logo discussion: https://git.centos.org/centos/Artwork/issue/1#comment-62 3. Looking at new Board membership and structure (ongoing) 4. Stepping-up our meeting norms (ongoing) 5. Transparency initiatives (ongoing) Public agenda consent items 1. Secretary role revitalized -- not formally in the governance yet, role is delegated meeting organization duties from the Chair to include calling for meetings, managing the private and public agenda for meetings, and handling the creation and release of private and public minutes. Karsten has volunteered to take this role until approximately June 2020. 2. Board intending to confirm support for planning a shift to sharing auth backends with the Fedora Project. * -- Karsten Wade [he/him/his]| Senior Community Architect | @quaid Red Hat Open Source Program Office (OSPO) : @redhatopen https://community.redhat.com | https://next.redhat.com | https://theopensourceway.org gpg: AD0E0C41 | https://red.ht/sig

Reasoning behind RHEL8 packages without corresponding -devel?
by Anthony Alba 12 Dec '19

12 Dec '19

(Of course, we should be asking RH... but nevertheless) EPEL 8 has several issues regarding packages without corresponding -devel. E.g., libXvMC, libbluray. I see that this causes grief for EPEL 8 and collateral damage to RPMFusion. Did RH disclose the reason for this? Was there any discussion on where CentOS will put them, like in Extras perhaps? (I was rolling out some testing VMs in RHEL8 and OL8, and noticed the new but "unsupported" CodeReady repos with -devel packages; yet not all -devels are them.) Cheers Anthony
