Ruby and Rails packaging effort
by Anthony J Burton 08 Dec '11

08 Dec '11

I am working on getting Ruby and Rails working via RPMs on CentOS. It seems like much could be ported from Fedora, but that could very well be crazy talk on my part. We have a client who is using CentOS for whom we are delivering a working application, albeit with a lot of manual labor to get a working Ruby environment. Getting it working with RPM is part of the requirements and I'd like this to translate into a benefit for CentOS, if possible. We're using fpm right now to package the application. I have built and maintained RPMs in the past but am unfamiliar with the peculiarities of legacy commitments in CentOS (i.e. Ruby+Rails is a fast moving target; CentOS implies more stability). Any advice on getting this completed is welcomed. Thanks, Anthony

Incorrect info in .treeinfo file
by James Hogarth 01 Dec '11

01 Dec '11

As per http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=5237 the .treeinfo file still has a reference to boot.iso although it doesn't exist. This breaks 'smart mirror' stuff like pulp from syncing properly as it exits on the non-existent file when setting up a distribution tree for kickstart purposes. Any one with access able to remove/correct the errant line? Regards, James

Regarding the Xen Headers for centOS 6.0 (32-bit)
by Ramana Reddy 30 Nov '11

30 Nov '11

Hi Everyone, I installed CentOS 6.0 as VM on XenServer 6.0, but it seems that the CentOS 6.0 does not contain xen headers. Where should I get those headers. Some how I got 64-bit CentOS 6.0 Xen headers, and if I use in CentOS 6.0 32-bit OS, what are the complications. How can we rewrite the 64-bit headers to 32-bit headers. Help in this regard is highly appreciated. Thanks, Ramana.

Is there a place where I can find 6.x centosplus kernels updated with cr kernel releases? I can rebuild them but maybe they are already available somewhere.

CR 6 repo question
by Ulrich Leodolter 28 Nov '11

28 Nov '11

hi, what happens when RHEL 6.2 is out before CentOS 6.1, will CR 6 contain updates from 6.2 even though CentOS 6.1 is not released ? looks like there are still some major showstoppers which prevent CentOS 6.1 release. regards, ulrich

Hi all. As the patents for the Bytecode interpreter has been expired [1], I wonder if we could build freetype '--with bytecode_interpreter' set. Greets Marcus [1] http://www.freetype.org/patents.html

moving the CR repo into mainstream release
by Karanbir Singh 25 Nov '11

25 Nov '11

hi guys, We are still in the early days of CentOS-6, and perhaps a change in policy at this time might be acceptable. I'd like to propose moving the CR repo into the mainline repos. So the change I'm proposing is : - to have a /6/ release that is always updated. - to have the /6.X/ releases that are contained to within that point release what this means is that /6/ will point at the most recent release of 6.X/ for the os/ & isos/ repo. The other repos would be local to the /6/ symlink, and will be always updated ( and stay that way ). there is going to be quite a lot of implications backend / mirror side that we will need to work out, but its effort + pain as a one off, for what can be a major improvement in the user experience. thoughts ? - KB

Hi all. some packages have Release Tags like: 6%{?dist}.2 Has that something to do with the minor release (e.g. build for el 6.2) ? Greets Marcus

Testers needed: nx (upgrade to the 3.5.0 series) and freenx (SELinux fix)

No issues with fonts, but the machine was installed with minimal desktop anyway. Looking forward to nx being moved to the extras-repo. Cheers Christoph
