Submit an rpm.
by Matt Rose 18 Nov '08

18 Nov '08

I've packaged an rpm for rubygems, since I got tired of doing the install manually on my centos server, and I would like to know how to submit it to one of the default repos so that, in the future, I can just yum install it. Does someone here know how best to approach this? Matt

Are there any other CentOS people at Supercomputing 2008 in Austin, Texas? If so, reply to me off-list and maybe we can try to meet up somewhere. -Brandon Davidson

hi, centosM is going to get recycled, with a newer / bigger machine one hopes. Once its back into the loop, I'll post an update email - but in the mean time if you cant get to wiki-m or the other services which were on the machine -> thats why. - KB

Updated xfs-kmod?
by James Pearson 14 Nov '08

14 Nov '08

I notice that there is a more recent 'test' xfs-kmod for CentOS5/RHEL5 at: <http://sandeen.net/rhel5_xfs/xfs-kmod-0.5-2.2.6.18_88.el5.testing.src.rpm> It looks like this is based on XFS code from the 2.6.25 kernel The SRPM has been there for 6 months, so I was wondering how much testing has been done with the code and CentOS5/RHEL5 ? Thanks James Pearson

Deploying FEL for Centos/RHEL 5 users on EPEL
by Chitlesh GOORAH 12 Nov '08

12 Nov '08

Hello there, This email is cross-posted on: - fedora electronic lab mailing list - fedora epel mailing list - centos devel mailing list - fedora marketing mailing list It describes briefly what FEL and EPEL (if case you don't know) are and my intentions for this deployment. FEL stands for Fedora Electronic Laboratory. The later is about packaging, maintaining and shipping electronic simulation packages for real hardware development. It was initially started with my passion for ASIC design, but now covers various design tools for: * Digital Simulation * VLSI Layout and Verification * RTL and logic synthesis design flows * Circuit Simulation * PCB Layout and Circuit Design * Micro Controller (µC) Programming and Embedded Systems Development http://chitlesh.fedorapeople.org/FEL/ Now we are about roughly 8 contributors. It is already more than 2 years since the early bits of FEL were introduced to Fedora repositories. Many other Fedora packagers and Fedora-Arm SIG have contributed a lot this success as well. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM Packaging is good, but is not enough. One of the main goals is to act as CAD/EDA engineers and bring open source hardware design tools to a meaningful usage and ensure interoperability within the design flows. We are thriving for interoperability, because without this, design tools are useless and even if its open source. Most of these packages have not yet been packaged for any other distributions. More specific details on the blog posts. http://clunixchit.blogspot.com/ Building a community and do marketing around FEL is also another of our priorities and a _hard_ task. Knowledge in electronics is advised and recommended :) I have received a lot of suggestions to deploy FEL on EPEL repositories so that Centos and RHEL users can use them on a longer basis. As many universities around the world have deployed enterprise-class Linux distributions such as Centos and RHEL, I believe users, lecturers and designers can largely benefit from the EPEL repositories. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL http://www.centos.org/ I have no idea whether Scientific Linux can take advantage of these intentions or not. If you do, let me know. In the past and even till now, I had very good experiences with Centos contributors. With some of the Centos contributors, we (fedora) even shared booths and devrooms in Belgium and Germany. If ever a Centos packager is already packaging any electronic simulation packages, please send us a mail in our brand new mailing list. We looking forward to hear from you. We'll be glad if we can work together. I'm focussing on EPEL 5. As I'm writing, only %1 of the work for building FEL packages for EPEL repositories has been done. Thus during the Fedora 11 development cycle, most of the work will be carried out and dependencies solve, at least mine. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/users/packages/chitlesh Nevertheless, some new tools will find their way to FEL very soon, e.g: verilator. The packages that I or any FEL contributor will push to EPEL repositories will not be as cutting-edge as they will on supported Fedora repositories. In the upcoming months, which I'm waiting for which desperately, we will see more mixed-level simulation support on the FEL platform. Now, FEL 10 will be out soon at the end of this month as a LiveDVD and packages are yum-able from fedora's repositories. Your suggestions and critics are welcome. We are only a small group of contributors who are working on a very specific application, "hardware design tools" and making their upstream benefit from the open source eco system. FEL has a lot of success since its official F8 release, and we are keen to keep that going and extend our umbrella. thanks and kind regards, Chitlesh GOORAH

Latest CentOS 5 httpd update version number
by Mike Zanker 12 Nov '08

12 Nov '08

I wasn't entirely sure where to ask about this, so apologies if I've picked the wrong list. An updated httpd RPM for CentOS 5 was released yesterday but none of my machines are seeing it. I'm wondering whether it has something to do with the version number because the upstream updated RPM is httpd-2.2.3-11.el5_2.4 whereas the CentOS RPM is httpd-2.2.3-11.el5.centos.4 The httpd that it should be replacing is httpd-2.2.3-11.el5_1.centos.3 so shouldn't the new one be httpd-2.2.3-11.el5_2.centos.4 ? Thanks, -- Mike Zanker

CentOS Plus kernels?
by Gernot Stocker 10 Nov '08

10 Nov '08

Hello All, I know this might be a nasty question but is there a special reason why there are no up-to-date kernel packages in the centosplus repository? I know, that I can compile it on my own but getting a compiled ne from you seems for all to be the best way of updating kernel. Anyway thank you for your great job you do all the time! Cheers, GS
