grisbi for centos 5?
by Heiko Adams 18 Nov '07

18 Nov '07

Hi, as far as I remember grisbi was already part of centos 4 extras - so I would like to see it in centos 5 extras too. -- Heiko Adams <heiko.adams(a)gmail.com>

Spec for Func
by Stephen Nelson-Smith 14 Nov '07

14 Nov '07

Attached is my spec for func 0.0.13 for CentOS 4 and 5. I've built both of these today and have them in production. The spec checks as clean with spectool. The key dependency is python-setuptools, which I have in my engineering repository, but is in kb's extras for C4 and in EPEL5 (and probably a candidate to be moved into Centos Extras too). Regards, S.

Customizing CentOS 5
by Hao Xu 13 Nov '07

13 Nov '07

Hi! I need to make a customized two cd version CentOS 5, removing rpms not needed and adding some extra packages. I'm familiar with CentOS 4 customizing, but I found that in 5 the directory architecture of the installation tree is a little bit different, e.g. there is no 'base' and 'RPMS' directories in os/arch/CentOS anymore. Is there a howto for customizing CentOS 5? Thanks! hao

About compile option for i386 of cachefilesd
by DAICON 09 Nov '07

09 Nov '07

CC:centos-devel@centos.org Hi. Mr. David Howells. About compile option for i386 of cachefilesd. Confirmed environment: 1, On i386 platform OS : CentOS 5 i386 CPU : Pentium M Mem : 2G Kernel : 2.6.18-8.1.15.el5 #1 SMP Mon Oct 22 08:32:04 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux (Installed by RPM) cachefilesd : cachefilesd-0.7-6 (Installed by RPM) I test cachefilesd (RPM package) on i386 machine, and I found issue. cachefilesd stopped when the file that exceeded 2Gbytes was loaded from NFS Server. This is because compile option "-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64" is not set when compiling. When this option is set, it seems to operate normally. You should set this option by default when thinking about the function of cachefilesd. I think. Is there problem in this compile option setting? -- DAICON <daicon(a)daicoon.org>

RHSA-2007:1020
by Karanbir Singh 02 Nov '07

02 Nov '07

humm.. <issue> https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2007-1020.html release tags indicate it was built against 5.1, something we have not seen as yet.... </issue> Options: 1) We build it with what we have at the moment, 5.0 + Updates 2) We wait for 5.1 before building it ( Note: it _is_ a security issue... so keep this in mind ) 3) We build it now against 5.0 and Tag it accordingly, and then rebuild it when 5.1 is out and then change Tag to 5_1. It will be a different RPM and would involve most uses doing two updates. Opinions ? -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : 2522219@icq

Hi, We have a driver that we would like to get included into the CentOS distribution (and others). How would we go about getting it in? We're currently planning to license it under GPL. Thanks, Jason
