quota-devel package is not available in CentOS 8
by Alexander Bokovoy 07 Oct '19

07 Oct '19

Hi, it is my time now to ask for a package to be added to PowerTools: Samba needs quota-devel to compile with file system quota support. In RHEL 8 we do have the package in the build root but not in any published repos. This means we cannot rebuild Samba with quota in upstream CI to run CI on CentOS 8 (or CentOS Stream). How can quota-devel be added to a repository? -- / Alexander Bokovoy Sr. Principal Software Engineer Security / Identity Management Engineering Red Hat Limited, Finland

Centos 8 Stream Software app repodata fails
by Andrew Hall 06 Oct '19

06 Oct '19

Hey there the "Software" app in GNOME fails to refresh the cache although it has the URL set to http://mirror.centos.org/$contentdir/$stream/AppStream/x86_64/os/repodata/r… which presumably resolves to this: http://mirror.centos.org/centos-8/8.0.1905/AppStream/x86_64/os/repodata/ It would seem that it just reads the baseurl from /etc/yum.repos.d/Centos-Stream-Appstream.repo and yum repolist returns fine so I'm wondering how to troubleshoot this ? Currently the "Software" app shows no software at all which is a shame. Please do let me know if this is a known issue thanks very much.

CentOS Stream and major releases
by Mason Loring Bliss 06 Oct '19

06 Oct '19

I'm pretty sure I understand the workflow, or what will be the workflow, for CentOS Stream and RHEL, but there's one thing I'm curious about that I'd love to have clarified, at least to the extent that it's been planned or thought about so far: Historically, a major release of RHEL has been cut from Fedora and polished up (or chopped down or...) but now that CentOS Stream exists, I can see several paths forward. One possibility I envision is that CStream will progress at about the same pace as RHEL point releases today, which would suggest that when it comes time to branch something for RHEL 9, that might once again be Fedora, with the branch then being a major release of CStream that'll be polished into what will be released as RHEL 9.0. Another possibility is that CStream will move somewhat quicker, with point releases over time covering more ground, somewhat obviating the notion of a major release - but this would conflict with the notion of a stable platform for vendors and partners to use as a long-lived base for their products, so I suspect it's not the answer. A third possibility is that when RHEL 8 slows down [1] and there wouldn't normally be another point release of it, CStream will pick up pace and make bigger changes until it rolls forward to where RHEL 9 will pick up. This is the one I'm hoping for personally, as it would keep CStream as a continuous rolling release, and appropriate for situations where you'd want a rolling release. (There's no official equivalent to Leapp for CentOS, but this would mean that CStream wouldn't need one.) Is the current thinking close to one of these, or are there options I've missed?

Hi guys, I noticed that the powertools sources are not yet on the vault. Is there a plan to share those? or is it deliberately empty? http://vault.centos.org/8.0.1905/PowerTools/Source/SPackages/ Thanks Jacco

Booting CentOS 8 in a VM - can't find the disk

I'm trying to boot CentOS 8 in a VM using my usual kickstart and virt-install recipes.

Git fetch broken since git migration
by Quanah Gibson-Mount 02 Oct '19

02 Oct '19

Hi, The ability to use "git fetch" with the new CentOS git repository has been broken ever since the migration and is impacting multiple users. I filed a bug on this nearly 5 months ago (https://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=16067) but there has not been any follow up. Would it be possible to please have this addressed? Thanks very much! Regards, Quanah

02 Oct '19

Hi All, As the intro will say, my name is Aoife Moloney and I have joined the CPE team two weeks ago as their Feature Driver (I elaborate a little more on my role below :) ). To increase our teams visibility, I've started to send out a weekly high level update email blast to the devel lists in CentOS & Fedora on a Friday outlining what our team has worked on/is currently working on. But, I never subscribed to the CentOS-devel list until yesterday, so the email never landed! Please see forwarded email update that went out last Friday. I wanted to send it to this list so you have context for this Fridays email update when it goes out, which will definitely land with you this week as intended - scouts honor :) Thanks and have a great day!

Download packages from https://koji.mbox.centos.org/pkgs/packages/
by Mark Hlawatschek 02 Oct '19

Hi! I’d love to download packages from https://koji.mbox.centos.org/pkgs/packages/ <https://koji.mbox.centos.org/pkgs/packages/> Unfortunately this is "forbidden by administrative rules." To get access to the packages would be very helpful especially as several -devel packages are not (yet) available for CentOS8 ;-) It would be great if I somebody can help me :-) -Mark
