some noarch packages missing in CentOS 6.0 i386 repo?
by Teck Choon Giam 24 Jul '11

24 Jul '11

Hi, This is my second post about missing packages. First one no reply about dev86 package (http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2011-July/007903.html) so this is my second post in the hope that someone is kind enough to direct me to the right channel to ask such questions. Thanks in advance. The following noarch packages found in CentOS 6.0 x86_64 repo but not in CentOS 6.0 i386 repo: vgabios-0.6b-3.4.el6.noarch.rpm gpxe-roms-0.9.7-6.3.el6.noarch.rpm mvapich-common-1.2.0-0.3562.5.el6.noarch.rpm gpxe-roms-qemu-0.9.7-6.3.el6.noarch.rpm perl-XML-DOM-XPath-0.14-4.el6.noarch.rpm perl-XML-Writer-0.606-6.el6.noarch.rpm gpxe-bootimgs-0.9.7-6.3.el6.noarch.rpm perl-Module-Find-0.08-3.el6.noarch.rpm Thanks. Kindest regards, Giam Teck Choon

ksplice and CentOS
by Karanbir Singh 24 Jul '11

24 Jul '11

hi guys, lots of people on this list are keen on contributing to the CentOS effort - and one place where we could, as a group of people, make a massive difference is being able to deliver a ksplice upgrade model. A couple of people have started in silo's to try and get something together but I feel it might be a good time to try and see if we can do somethng as a group. Do we have people on the list who find the idea of rebootless kernel upgrades interesting ? Is there some desire to try and make that happen within the CentOS Ecosystem ? - KB

CentOS Missing Packages (extras->mcrypt)
by Chris 22 Jul '11

22 Jul '11

It looks like in the extras repo for CentOS 6 the following packages are missing: libmcrypt.x86_64 : Encryption algorithms library libmcrypt-devel.x86_64 : Development libraries and headers for libmcrypt php-mcrypt.x86_64 : Standard PHP module provides mcrypt library support These packages exist in the extras repo for CentOS 5.6 and are a critical part of the whole php and mysql interaction.

Lots of updates to EL5.x
by Karanbir Singh 22 Jul '11

22 Jul '11

hi guys, looks like 5.7 just got released upstream. The rpm build and the distro build services for the 5.x distro is independant from the 6.x stuff, so it should build in parallel and be available shortly ( via the CR setup ) There are a couple of updates from 5.6 still pending - I just pushed those out. - KB

announcing stuff that is in CR/
by Karanbir Singh 21 Jul '11

21 Jul '11

hi guys, Opinions on what would be a good time to announce rpms that make it into the CR/ repo's ? As we build through 5.7 and 6.1, and start pushing the packages into the CR/ repo, should we also be announcing those updates ? On one hand it seems like the best time to announce it since the rpms are available - however they are only available to people who specifically opt into the CR/ process, so perhaps the best time to announce them would be when the rpms are in the os ( or updates/ ) repos in the next release. thoughts ? - KB

Updates proposed but no post on centos-announce
by Gianluca Cecchi 21 Jul '11

21 Jul '11

Reading the various e-mails in centos-devel list archives I understood that each update for 6.0 would go through a specific centos-announce e-mail.... is this correct? I can found 2 install + 78 updates proposed to my CentOS system while apparently no new message in http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2011-July/date.html since 10th of July Also in CentOS home page I can see: " Since upstream has a 6.1 version already released, we will be using a Continous Release repository for 6.0 to bring all 6.1 and post 6.1 security updates to all 6.0 users, till such time as CentOS-6.1 is released itself. " But I understood CR repo has to be specifically "activated"... how? So what is current situation? Possibly lists.centos.org non updated but e-mails actually sent to subscribers...? In attach output of "yum update" on this system... as of 15th of July when I tried (I didn't update) Are perhaps these a sort of 0 day updates, as it happens in Fedora? Thanks in advance Gianluca

Spacewalk packages removed in CentOS 6?
by Miroslav Suchý 19 Jul '11

19 Jul '11

I just read: http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOS6.0#head-c667a3d0dc5a41af… And I wonder why has been: rhnlib rhn-check rhn-client-tools rhnsd rhn-setup rhn-setup-gnome yum-rhn-plugin removed from CentOS 6? We discussed it more than year ago: http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2010-January/005307.html http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2010-February/005402.html and the conclusion was that we will leave CentOS 5 as is (i.e. do not add there this packages) but in CentOS 6 this packages will not be removed. So I'm quite surprised that they are removed? Can somebody share with me the details why it has been removed? -- Miroslav Suchy Red Hat Satellite Engineering

Anaconda install groups vs yumgroups?
by me＠tdiehl.org 14 Jul '11

14 Jul '11

Hi, In looking at the C6 installer there are several types of installs listed. In the past I could do an install and anaconda would tell me what yumgroups it installed via the anaconda.cfg that was dropped in /root. with c6 anaconda still drops this file but none of the yumgroups are listed. Is there a way to determine what yumgroups a particular install group installs? For instance if I do a server install which groups actually get installed? I am thinking there is something in the anaconda source but so far I am unable to find it and Google is not useful. Is this info listed anywhere? Regards, -- Tom me(a)tdiehl.org Spamtrap address me123(a)tdiehl.org
