httpd from testing replace httpd.conf
by Paulo Martinez 24 Jan '10

24 Jan '10

Hi all, while switching from [updates] httpd-2.2.3-31.el5.centos.2.src.rpm to [c5-testing] httpd-2.2.8-1.el5s2.centos.src.rpm i noticed that httpd.conf will be replaced. That should not be intentional? Comparing the spec-files shows [updates] %config(noreplace) %{_sysconfdir}/httpd/conf/httpd.conf [c5-testing] %config %{_sysconfdir}/httpd/conf/httpd.conf httpd-2.2.8-1.el5s2 is from RHWAS right? Regards PM

why is the addons repo empty?
by Felix Schwarz 16 Jan '10

16 Jan '10

Hi, today I noticed that yum-priorities is not anymore in the base distribution - a fact that seems to be well documented. However the yum-utils src rpm still builds that package. Therefore I was wondering why yum-priorities is available in extras and not in addons. Basically http://wiki.centos.org/FAQ/General says: > What are all the CentOS repositories (directories) and what is each one > for? > > addons > Contains packages required in order to build the main Distribution or > packages produced by SRPMS built in the main Distribution, but not included > in the main Red Hat package tree (mysql-server in CentOS-3.x falls into > this category). Packages contained in the addons repository should be > considered essentially a part of the core distribution, but may not be in > the main Red Hat Package tree. However the addons repo is completely empty for CentOS 5.4. Does that mean addons is deprecated? fs

Re: [CentOS-devel] [CentOS-docs] Article on building i586 CentOS-5 kernel

I've been held up by my work, but here is the continuation of the conversation regarding i586 CentOS-5: On 01/11/2010 08:18 PM, Karanbir Singh wrote: >> * Can the changes mentioned in that article be incorporated into the >> stock SRPM?

For my purpose, yes. The modified kernel and glibc.i386 and openssl.i386 are all I needed to get the system running from CF card. I'm not using the procps RPM, but using busybox instead. I never tested Xen support on the i586 kernel. The "CentOS5PentiumSupport" wiki doc mentioned that "-ffast-math" generated CMOV instructions in .i386 packages. That sounds more like a gcc bug. So instead of patching all the packages that enable "-ffast-math", patching gcc would be the ultimate solution. > If there is reasonable interest in running a i586 tree, then imho, a SIG > dedicated to this would be the best route to go.

I can see that the amount of physical hardware available for testing i586 packages is limited, but I guess when CentOS-4 reaches EOL, some people might opt for a CentOS-5 upgrade path. Anyway, I'm happy to help out with any testing on physical hardware. When I do find the time, I'll try to look into the CMOV and gcc issue, but no promises there. One thing I'm not good at is organizing things, so I won't volunteer to initiate the SIG... Regards, Timothy Lee

Forum Thread -- Relating to the CentOS 5 Testing Repository
by Alan Bartlett 13 Jan '10

13 Jan '10

There has been a recent forum thread [1] where the OP has asked about the C-5 Testing Repository and the php packages contained therein. When the time permits, would one of the core-devs please post a comment to that thread. Having defocussed my eyes, I mentally see an image of Tru, Johnny, Karanbir, Ralph or Russ checking the quoted URL . . . Regards, Alan.

reboots ahead
by Karanbir Singh 05 Jan '10

05 Jan '10

hi guys, just a quick note to say that there will be reboots on all *.dev.centos.org nodes ( including real machines ) but not on dev.centos.org itself. Reboots should happen during the day 7th Jan UTC. Given that this impacts so few people ( and everyone is here on this list ) I'm not sending this to the announce list. Questions, issues - come find us on #centos-devel(a)irc.freenode.net or just here in the mailing list. -- Karanbir Singh London, UK | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh ICQ: 2522219 | Yahoo IM: z00dax | Gtalk: z00dax GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc

Forum thread -- "anaconda does not support DHCP option 121"
by Alan Bartlett 27 Dec '09

27 Dec '09

There has been a forum thread [1], with the above subject header, recently started by a user "BruceLee". Both Phil Schaffner and I have (independently) attempted to explain that the OP's request would, most probably, not be dealt with by the CentOS project. I write this message to ask, time permitting, if one of the core dev-team (in no particular order: Russ, Karanbir, Tru, Ralph or Johnny) will please post an authoritative sentence (or even paragraph) to that thread? Regards, Alan. [1] http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=23539&forum=37#t…

mirrorlist issue
by Andreas Rogge 18 Dec '09

18 Dec '09

While upgrading our servers to 5.4 I just noticed that the mirrorlist is somewhat "broken" (at least for me). For 4.8 it does work: http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?repo=updates&arch=x86_64&release=4.8 For 5.3 it also works: http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?repo=updates&arch=x86_64&release=5.3 But for 5.4 it doesn't work: http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?repo=updates&arch=x86_64&release=5.4 Is that intended? If so: how do I say "I want 5.4 and all its updats but I don't want to move to 5.5 right now" <background-info> I know that usually one would just ask for "release=5", however - our rpm-patch-and-upgrade-toolchain relies on the ability to pin the system to a specific CentOS release until we're sure our boxes can be moved to the new release. We do that by replacing $releasever in the CentOS-Base.repo with the exact release we want to stay with. </background-info> Regards, Andreas -- Solvention Egermannstr. 6-8 53359 Rheinbach Tel: +49 2226 158179-0 Fax: +49 2226 158179-9 http://www.solvention.de mailto:info@solvention.de

New package: PowerAdmin
by Léon Keijser 18 Dec '09

18 Dec '09

Hi, I would like to submit a new package for inclusion in the CentOS repositories: Spec URL: http://leon.fedorapeople.org/files/poweradmin/poweradmin.spec SRPM URL: http://leon.fedorapeople.org/files/poweradmin/poweradmin-2.1.3-5.fc12.src.r… Description: Poweradmin is a friendly web-based DNS administration tool for Bert Hubert's PowerDNS server. The interface has full support for most of the features of PowerDNS. It has full support for all zone types ( master, native and slave), for supermasters for automatic provisioning of slave zones, full support for IPv6 and comes with multi-language support. See feature list for all features. rpmlint outputs 2 warnings, both of which i can explain: poweradmin.noarch: W: file-not-in-%lang /var/www/html/poweradmin/locale/nl_NL/LC_MESSAGES/messages.mo poweradmin.noarch: W: dangerous-command-in-%post rm The locale file belongs to the poweradmin package and is not meant for system-wide usage. The rm command is to remove the ./install dir when upgrading the package. If it's not removed, PowerAdmin won't function properly anymore. Having never submitted anything for CentOS yet, i welcome all input. Kind regards, -- Léon
