source rpms for z-stream
by Florian La Roche 12 Apr '12

12 Apr '12

Hello, anyone knows if Red Hat is pushing out source rpms for 4.y.z releases only or if the same will be done for RHEL5 and RHEL6 as well? Having all source rpms released would be a good step for CentOS and co, but maybe this is only done for the the discontinued RHEL4? By the way: ftp.redhat.com has rsync enabled for some time now, so having mirrors of it is much more convenient than in the past. best regards, Florian La Roche rsync: opendir "/ftp.redhat.com/updates/enterprise/4Desktop-4.5.z" (in download) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir "/ftp.redhat.com/updates/enterprise/4Desktop-LACD" (in download) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir "/ftp.redhat.com/updates/enterprise/4Desktop" (in download) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir "/ftp.redhat.com/updates/enterprise/4ES-4.5.z" (in download) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir "/ftp.redhat.com/updates/enterprise/4ES-4.7.z-cluster" (in download) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir "/ftp.redhat.com/updates/enterprise/4ES-4.7.z" (in download) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir "/ftp.redhat.com/updates/enterprise/4ES-LACD" (in download) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir "/ftp.redhat.com/updates/enterprise/4ES" (in download) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir "/ftp.redhat.com/updates/enterprise/4WS-4.5.z" (in download) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir "/ftp.redhat.com/updates/enterprise/4WS-LACD" (in download) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir "/ftp.redhat.com/updates/enterprise/4WS" (in download) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir "/ftp.redhat.com/updates/rhn" (in download) failed: Permission denied (13) IO error encountered -- skipping file deletion

CentOS for ARM
by Gordan Bobic 25 Mar '12

25 Mar '12

Hi guys, I recently became aware that this is being worked on as of recently. A similar thing already exists, though. Those interested in an ARM port may also be interested in taking a look at RedSleeve Linux, which is an ARM port of the same upstream distribution as CentOS. You can look here for more info: http://www.redsleeve.org/about/ http://www.redsleeve.org/ In total 109 SRPMs had to be modified in order to get them to build and work on ARM. They are in SRPMS/changed directory on the RedSleeve mirror. (Note: About 5 of those 109 were changed in order to remove the upstream branding which isn't relevant to the CentOS effort as it is already taken care of. It is quite well known what those are.) I hope this is of interest to the CentOS ARM port efforts. Or, you could take RedSleeve for a spin, since that is already available. :) Gordan

Automating Artwork Production
by Alain Reguera Delgado 24 Mar '12

24 Mar '12

Hello, I've been in silence a long time so far because it is very difficult for me to have real Internet access. However, I've kept myself working for CentOS and now, I publish what I've been doing for you to evaluate and propose considerations. I know the wiki is not the best place to post this information, but it is the only one I have access to (because restrictions on my side, not yours). Excuse me for that. The centos-art.sh script: http://wiki.centos.org/AlainRegueraDelgado?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=… Documentation about the CentOS Artwork Repository (centos-art.sh script included): http://wiki.centos.org/AlainRegueraDelgado?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=… The CentOS Artwork Repository Tree for which all automation was done. http://wiki.centos.org/AlainRegueraDelgado?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=… The centos-web.cgi: http://wiki.centos.org/AlainRegueraDelgado?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=… That's it for now. I'll try to download the mailing list archives to read your comments and when possible replay them. Thank you very much for all the work you do. I'll try to be back as soon as possible. Best Regards, al.

repo extras enabled by default
by Leon Fauster 08 Mar '12

08 Mar '12

Despite the decision to place the centos-release-cr rpm into the extras repository. I just want to ask if there are some thoughts on keeping the extras repository disabled by default? Or use extras for just that extras (e.g. centos-release-cr) and move current extras rpms into the addons repo? this came here up while auditing a system etc. - i noticed some rpms from extras. just thinking loud LF

qaweb dashboard and dates displayed
by Gianluca Cecchi 29 Feb '12

29 Feb '12

Hello, hope that this could be correct target to post, as I don't find any link directly on the web site. I notice that going to http://qaweb.dev.centos.org/qa/dashboard some posts don't get updated with the correct timestamp as days pass through. For example when you click on the article First CentOS 6.2 Tree and ISOs make it to QA you can see that the comment from Jeff " As of last night we have an installable x86_64 tree for testing. The i386 tree has some issues with the installer that need to be fixed. " keeps getting marked as "4:42pm Today" HIH giving better information, Gianluca

Should bugs.centos.org entries be duped for CentOS 5 and CentOS 6?
by Greg Bailey 28 Feb '12

28 Feb '12

It's a minor issue, but I opened http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=4951 some time ago against CentOS 6, because I noticed that most of the files on the DVD image(s) are owned by UID=500, and it's inconsistent with upstream. I just checked my CentOS 5.7 iso, and it's in the same situation; with 5.8 being worked, does it make sense to consider this bug entry for 5.8 ISO creation? Or does a new bug need to be filed? thanks, Greg
