2026-02-11 CentOS Public Board Meeting - Canceled
by Amy Marrich 10 Feb '26

10 Feb '26

Due to recent travel to Connect and FOSDEM we are cancelling tomorrow's meeting while we catch up on things, recover from the FOSDEM flu, and get over jet lag. There just wasn't enough for the agenda to be worth taking up folk's time.

Hi guys. In c9 if I want to use gcc-toolset-15 non-interactively I do: source /opt/rh/gcc-toolset-15/enable export X_SCLS=gcc-toolset-15 I'm fiddling with things in c10 but I fail to get this set to work - how is it done, do you know? many thanks, L.

devel rpms
by lejeczek 03 Feb '26

03 Feb '26

Hi. I'm missing something or some packages are really absent - do you guys get, eg.: teamd-devel libndp-devel - these I cannot get for c9 nor for c10 - if some devel rpms are absent, is it on purpose? thanks, L.

c9 to c10 migration - anybody did recently?
by lejeczek 02 Feb '26

02 Feb '26

Hi guys. An in-place migration, bit clunky but works - what did not work when I did it, in very early days of c10 was: networkmanager configuration, specifically: network connections were all lost. Anybody did it such "migration" recently - perhaps "recently" NM whole stash remains a ok? many thanks, L.

rpm experts ? error: macro expansion did not return an integer: (%2)
by lejeczek 27 Jan '26

Hi guys. I'm trying to rebuild 'rust-vhost-device-gpu.spec' from 'rust-vhost-device-gpu-0.1.0-2.el10s.src.rpm' and I fail with: ... Start: buildsrpm Start: rpmbuild -bs error: macro expansion did not return an integer: (%2) ? "%{expand:%%{!?_without_%{1}:%%global with_%{1} 1}}" : "%{expand:%%{?_with_%{1}:%%global with_%{1} 1}}" error: expanded string: %2 ... This is some tickery I'm missing here - missing args to cmd which in my case is 'mock' - specific to this .spec? many thanks, L

virtio GPUs with Qemu ?
by lejeczek 21 Jan '26

21 Jan '26

Hi guys. Can you tell when Centos will include 3D hardware virtio with Qemu/KVM - is there a schedule for this even if a loose one? It would be great to have it, especially with more "modern" kernels being available from SIGs/third-parties or even current ones. Perhaps there is software stack capable of this already which some group/repo makes available somewhere? many thanks, L.

Fwd: [PROPOSAL] Creating the NVIDIA Enablement SIG - Accelerating NVIDIA Upstream Integration
by Amy Marrich 16 Jan '26

16 Jan '26

---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Amnon Ilan <ailan(a)redhat.com> Date: Tue, Jan 13, 2026 at 2:35 PM Subject: [PROPOSAL] Creating the NVIDIA Enablement SIG - Accelerating NVIDIA Upstream Integration To: <devel(a)lists.centos.org> Cc: Amy Marrich <amarrich(a)redhat.com>, Neo Jia <cjia(a)nvidia.com>, < newtonl(a)nvidia.com> Hello everyone, I would like to propose the creation of a new Special Interest Group: the NVIDIA Enablement SIG. Purpose The NVIDIA Enablement SIG will integrate these "in-flight" upstream patches from NVIDIA into a specialized variant of CentOS Stream, allowing the community to test and utilize next-generation hardware capabilities today. Scope The initial work of the SIG will focus on the foundational layers of the stack required for modern compute and graphics hardware: - Linux Kernel: Integrating and testing patches submitted by NVIDIA to the kernel community that improve hardware support and system integration. - Virtualization (QEMU & libvirt): Implementing upcoming changes that enhance how virtual machines interact with hardware accelerators and modern GPU architectures. - Continuous Alignment: Ensuring these patches maintain parallel compatibility with the core CentOS Stream codebase as they evolve during the upstream review process. Deliverables - SIG Repositories: builds of the kernel, qemu-kvm, and libvirt containing the latest upstream-bound patches. - Enablement Packages: A centos-release-nvidia-enablement package to provide users with an easy path to opt-in to these experimental stacks. - Future work: - Expanded package set as appropriate - Install media / images Initial Members - Amnon Ilan - (Proposed Chair) - Amy Marrich - (Board Sponsor) - Neo Gia - Newton Liu - [Member Name] (We invite anyone interested in the future of open-source hardware enablement to join us.) Resources Requested - Wiki: sigs.centos.org/nvidia-enablement - CBS Access: Build tags and targets for CentOS Stream 10. We look forward to hearing the community's thoughts on this proposal. Best regards, Amnon Ilan

Discussion: Thoughts of new sig - CentOS Rollup
by Troy Dawson 15 Jan '26

15 Jan '26

This is my last call to see if anyone wants to be part of a CentOS Rollup SIG. The SIG would rollup all of the "stuff" (images, repos, packages, documentation, etc...) from all the CentOS SIGs, along with the the corresponding CentOS Stream and EPEL releases, once a quarter. We could put all of that in AWS space, and leave it there for a period of time. Some people brought it up last year, but when I went to start the SIG, nobody said anything. If nobody wants to have or participate in this SIG, I'm totally fine dropping it. Troy

2026-01-14 CentOS Public Board Meeting
by Amy Marrich 12 Jan '26

12 Jan '26

Our next board meeting will take place at 20:00 UTC on Wednesday: `date -d "2026-01-14 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/pKcqSSxCQaGaKhQN_qg72Q 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
