Word of Appriciation
by christoph 02 Nov '11

02 Nov '11

I would like to say a big "Thank you" to all of the developers of CentOS!! Especially since TUV released V6 it seems to have gotten a lot harder for you people in providing the community with this great OS (including but not limited to a lot of heat in the mailing lists). Thanks for carrying on! CentOS6 made my life at work much easier. I'm moving some 30+ machines (primary function iptables-Firewalling) from OpenSuSE to C6, so I won't have to do a major distro upgrade every 18 months. Since the first deployment of C6 starting this summer, it worked like a charm. Of course, I only use a very limited set of its features (basically "minimal desktop" is enough), but the long term support counts! Also the ps performance toolkit - which is based on C5 - works great, part to you guys providing the OS. The work you do is very much appreciated! Keep it up. cheers Christoph

The CR-Repo is very much appreciated and - imho - should have a place in the mainline repo. This might also take some load off of the mirrors during point release time (as most packages from /os are already updated via /cr - for those who use it. Did I get that one right?) Changing my mirrorlayout should be no problem. +1 all the best Christoph

Mock SCM Issue
by Jarod Watkins 26 Oct '11

26 Oct '11

Hello, I am trying to build an RPM with Mock via a git repo. It seems like I run into an issue with the Sources option inside my spec file: DEBUG: Initializing SCM integration... DEBUG: SCM checkout command: git clone git://gitrepo reponame DEBUG: SCM checkout post command: git checkout master DEBUG: SCM checkout directory: /tmp/tmp2178L4.mock-scm.reponame DEBUG: Executing command: ['git', 'clone', 'git://gitrepo', 'reponame'] DEBUG: Cloning into reponame...

My Mock version is 1.0.22 from EPEL. Is this a known issue or am I doing something wrong? Thanks, Jarod

CentOS 6.0 + CR vs RHEL 6.1 differences: flac
by Gianluca Cecchi 26 Oct '11

26 Oct '11

Hello, trying to replicate a rh el 6.1 configuration to a CentOS 6.0+CR. Original upstream server was installed in 6.0 and then updated gradually up to 6.1 and other packages (up to about first days of October). It is registered to additional channels such as High Availability, Resilient Storage. Overall its situation is this: # rhn-channel -l rhel-x86_64-server-6 rhel-x86_64-server-ha-6 rhel-x86_64-server-optional-6 rhel-x86_64-server-rs-6 rhel-x86_64-server-supplementary-6 rhel-x86_64-server-v2vwin-6 rhn-tools-rhel-x86_64-server-6 At the moment, I found some differences. I'm going to post different e-mails for different packages - flac On rh el 6.1 # rpm -q flac package flac is not installed On CentOS it is now installed, but if I try to remove it I get: [root@crhev3

Where does kdewebdev come from?
by Alain Portal 11 Oct '11

11 Oct '11

Hi, As kdewebdev wasn't a package of CentOS or Fedora EPEL, I rebuilt for my CentOS 6 the Fedora master branch several weeks ago. And last week, when I updated my CentOS with the CR repo, I got a kdewebdev-3.5.10-14.el6.x86_64 package. But where does come from this package? Regards Alain

fpaste feedback
by John R. Dennison 01 Oct '11

01 Oct '11

Feedback for fpaste-VERSION in c5-testing. Unable to test -i/--clipin, -o/--clipout, or --selection as I do not run X. All other options tested and all seem fine with the exception of an anomaly with --pasteself. Upon using this option the script successfully pastes itself to fpaste.org and then presents the user with: install fpaste to local ~/bin dir by running: mkdir -p ~/bin; curl http://fpaste.org/8WcN/raw/ -o ~/bin/fpaste && chmod +x ~/bin/fpaste Tested: Pipelines: echo "foo" | fpaste Redirects: fpaste < /path/to/file Files: fpaste /path/to/file stdin: fpaste <^d> All combinations of command line arguments were tested including argument overload. No anomalies / bugs other than that listed above were detected. Can this please get moved into extras soon? Having to point people to epel to install a cli paste client is somewhat annoying. Thanks.
