why php5.2 still is not of part of centos5.3?
by Kamol 16 Sep '09

16 Sep '09

Hello, I do not have any problem with Centos5.3, in 32bits and 64bits servers. For so long time. A lot of famous CMS, CRM and Shopping Cart already requesting >= PHP5.2. For that each time have to add http://dev.centos.org/centos/5/CentOS-Testing.repo :( With regards, Kamol. Mobile email: mavlonov(a)docomo.ne.jp Mobile number: +81-90-5767-3203 www.kamol.info

CentOS Plus: Valuable or wasted resource?
by Ross Walker 12 Sep '09

12 Sep '09

Is CentOS Plus really necessary? The reason I ask is it seems it is there to provide additional kernel modules not included in the base repo that could be added to 'extras' as kmods. Now I know there are some who would like to boot off of fireware drives and such, but is it worth the development effort having a separate kernel tree that, frankly is always behind, needs extra resources to maintain and offers little over standalone kernel modules? The resources and time that go into maintaining CentOS Plus could go into improving and maintaining the few add-on kernel modules and keeping up with security and bug updates. Let outside repos provide custom kernels. Well that is my .02. -Ross

Extra PHP 5.2.9 packages available in testing
by Tim Verhoeven 11 Sep '09

11 Sep '09

Hi, The 5.2.9 PHP packages available in the testing repo are missing some extra components that upstream does not build. For the normal PHP 5.1.6 this was solved by packages in Extras or other 3th party repos. But for the 5.2.9 PHP there were missing until know. I've just build them and they are available in the testing repo (http://dev.centos.org/centos/5/testing) The provided extra packages are php-tidy, php-readline, php-mssql, php-mcrypt, php-mhash and php-dbase. A warning, there are untested packages. So I would really appreciate if people could test these new packages and let us know if they work or not. Regards, Tim -- Tim Verhoeven - tim.verhoeven.be(a)gmail.com - 0479 / 88 11 83 Hoping the problem magically goes away by ignoring it is the "microsoft approach to programming" and should never be allowed.

Centos 5 on s390
by Kherzi Samir 08 Sep '09

08 Sep '09

Hello, I'm interrested in having Centos 5 on s390, but I noticed it's not yet available. I'm wondering if I can recompile the sources myself by one of these procedure: 1. Cross Compiling for s390 architecture 2. Installing a Centos 4 inside Hercules emulator, and recompiling sources in this emulated Centos. Also, is there an automated procedure if I want to compile SRPMS? Thanks for your answers. Regards, Samir KHERZI

CentOS Artwork - preview #2
by Alain Reguera Delgado 08 Sep '09

08 Sep '09

Hi! CentOS Artwork - preview #2 is here for you to evaluate and consider. It is based on Modern motif and community suggestions: http://wiki.centos.org/ArtWork/Preview-2 In order to keep things simple, could we change the "one different artistic motif by major release" model to "the same artistic motif in all releases" ? With this, it would be easier to propagate artwork improvements to all distributions and the overall CentOS visual identity (as product) would be uniform and coherent. There is an issue with 14 colors indexed images (Ex. that in grub splash) and the CentOS symbol colors. When building these images, the resulting colors in CentOS symbol is different from those in images with no color limitation. I tried to crate a GIMP palette with the correct CentOS Symbol colors, and apply it when indexing them but the final 14 colors image shows lot of noise when is loaded at boot time. Does anyone knows how this could be fixed ? Ralph: would you still want to have more anaconda slides ? Best Regards, al. -- http://www.fastmail.fm - Or how I learned to stop worrying and love email again

In the past I have been a member of the CentOS QA Team. Because of less available time available, I made the decision back than to leave the team. Fortunately, things have settled down in my life. And I am in the position to join the QA Team again, if my seat is still available. Regards, Patrick

Apache ServerTokens says Red Hat
by Peter Magnusson 06 Sep '09

06 Sep '09

Hey. I was quite annoyed by the fact that one of my fully updated CentOS 5.3 boxes said "Red Hat" instead of CentOS when listing an empty dir with apache like this: http://flashdance.cx/tmp/ (said CentOS before) and http://www.flashdance.cx/tmp/ that said Red Hat. Talked with some guys in #centos irc and alot of stuff was tested to see why it differ. Then I realized that the one that still said CentOS hasnt been restarted since the box was rebooted, Jun16: root 4747 0.0 0.1 17468 4836 ? Ss Jun16 0:01 /usr/sbin/httpd thats why it still said CentOS! After restart of apache, it says Red Hat. Now I dont have the previous httpd rpm file but I guess it happend with httpd-2.2.3-22.el5.centos.2 that I have installed now, ServerTokens isnt changed to CentOS in it. It needs to be fixed :)

Links our Mantis to upstreams' Bugzilla - a idea for the community to help with
by Tim Verhoeven 02 Sep '09

02 Sep '09

Hi, I would like the send out the mail below to centos-devel (probably, seems the best place). The idea is that when we need to monitor a upstream bug we could just enter the upstream bugzilla number into mantis and that from then on any updates made in the bugzilla report would also be added to our bugreport. That makes it much easier to track upstream bugreports. I've googled around and I could not find anything that already does such a thing. Here is the mail : Hello, We have a project for which we are could use some help. Its about creating a link between our Mantis bugtracker (bugs.centos.org) and upstreams Bugzilla (bugzilla.redhat.com) At the moment we need to manually track all upstreams bugs reported in our own bugtracker. This is a time-consuming process and it something that can be automated. So why not do it. My idea was to create a daemon of some sort that at regular intervals checks all bugs in our systems that have a upstream bugzilla number entered (Mantis support customs fields that could be used for this). If there is a update in the bugzilla since the last run it is copied into the bug in Mantis. That why we can get notified automatically and can react to the updates more quickly and spend less time needing to follow up. Well, this is just my idea on how to implement it. If there are others suggestions, please let me know. Also, I've googled to find if something like this already existed but I could not find anything. So, who has some scripting experience (the language doesn't matter) that wants to have a go at this ?
