Building CentOS Cloud Images
by john+centos＠johnkeates.com 06 Jun '19

06 Jun '19

I’m working on an internal build chain for AWS CentOS images, and I’m looking for any information regarding the changes or modifications made when creating the AMIs, aside from what’s already in the anaconda-ks file in currently uploaded AMIs. I know there isn’t much publicly available on the deployment source for CentOS-AWS images or how they are constructed in the first place, but any information on what’s added/removed on a base install would be great. (p.s. I might have accidentally sent this message twice, but once from an unregistered email address, I hope the first one simply doesn’t reach the list) Regards, John

Delta RPMs (drpms) for CentOS-6 and CentOS-7
by Johnny Hughes 05 Jun '19

05 Jun '19

We are having issues with drpms on CentOS-6 i386 and x86_64 and on CentOS-7 x86_64. The technical issues sometimes cause us to have to rebuild all drpms over again .. and the time involved is very large. Also storing the drpms and moving them around takes up a lot of space and bandwidth. We would like to remove delta rpms (drpms) from our CentOS-6 and CentOS-7 repositories. But before we do , we would like a discussion on these lists to ensure this is not going to cause people major issues. So, begin the discussion, and we will address this again in about a month. And we'll see where it leads. Thanks, Johnny Hughes

How altarch will be in CentOS 8?
by Marcin Juszkiewicz 04 Jun '19

04 Jun '19

CentOS 7 supports several architectures: - x86-64 - aarch64 - ppc64le - armhfp - i386 - ppc64 - power9 All except 'x86-64' are stored in /altarch/7/ directory on mirror.centos.org and are mirrored only by subset of mirrors. RHEL 8 treats aarch64, ppc64le, s390x, x86-64 as equals - package has to build on each of them to get included in repositories etc. So the question is how CentOS 8 will be organized? Moving everything into mirrors.centos.org/centos/8/ will simplify live for all of those using non-x86 machines as repos will be widely mirrored and there will be no need of handling centos|altarch in external projects. I think that /altarch/8/ may exist for armhfp, i386, etc architectures which are not a part of RHEL 8. What do you think?

SCL packages in CentOS 7 that are expired and EOL
by Trevor Hemsley 30 May '19

30 May '19

Hi all I just had a glance at the various repos installed by centos-release-scl on CentOS 7 and a large number of the packages available in the CentOS version of this repo are both old and out of date and more importantly, EOL. They should be removed from our repos ASAP. I know we had/have a policy of cleaning these repos up at point release times but it's quite apparent that we have missed all of these for a number of point releases from 7.3 onwards. Thus I propose we make an exception for these and remove them anyway, regardless of point release time or not. A lot of them should have been gone for 3 years already. The following are all dead as per https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/rhscl - some of them deader than others. devtoolset-3 - Oct 2016 devtoolset-4 - Nov 2017 devtoolset-6 - Nov 2018 git19 - Oct 2016 mariadb-5.5 - Oct 2016 maven30 - Oct 2016 mogodb24 - Oct 2016 mysql55 - Oct 2016 nginx16 - Oct 2016 nodejs010 - Oct 2016 perl516 - Oct 2016 php54 - Oct 2016 php55 - Oct 2016 postgresql92 - Oct 2016 python33 - Oct 2016 rh-git29 - Nov 2018 rh-mariadb100 - Apr 2018 rh-mongodb26 - Apr 2018 rh-mongodb30upg - Apr 2018 rh-mysql56 - Apr 2018 rh-nginx18 - Nov 2018 rh-nodejs4 - May 2018 rh-passenger40 - Apr 2018 rh-perl520 - Apr 2018 rh-postgresql94 - Apr 2018 rh-python34 - Apr 2018 rh-ror41 - Apr 2018 rh-ruby22 - Apr 2018 rh-thermostat16 - Oct 2016 rh-varnish4 - Nov 2018 ror40 - Oct 2016 ruby193 - Oct 2016 ruby200 - Oct 2016 rust-toolset-7 - ??? sclo-python34 - Apr 2018 thermostat1 - Oct 2016 v8314 - Apr 2018 The following go EOL this month: ==================== rh-mariadb101 - May 2019 rh-maven33 - May 2019 rh-mongodb32 - May 2019 rh-nodejs6 - May 2019 rh-postgresql95 - May 2019 rh-python35 - May 2019 rh-ror42 - May 2019 rh-ruby23 - May 2019 sclo-python35 - May 2019 sclo-ror42 - May 2019 These are not mentioned on the above page but could be part of other SCLs that are still current (maybe!) rh-eclipse46* sclo-cassandra3 - ???? sclo-git212 - ??? sclo-git25 - ??? go-toolset - no expiration date given libasan[2,3,4,5] libcilkrts, liblsan, libmpx, libtsan, libubsab[1] - ???? llvm-toolset-7 - part of devtoolset-7? sclo-subversion19 - ??? sclo-vagrant1 - ???

CRI-O rpm not published to public repo hence not signed
by Daniel Comnea 28 May '19

28 May '19

Hi Lokesh, If i'm not mistaken i guess you are still building/ maintaining the CRI-O rpms ? If so could you please let me know where is the CI job which builds the rpms [1] which are tagged into [2] ? The reason i'm bringing this up is because folks in K8s community are using the cri-o rpms published to [3] and that should have never happened. Now with Fabian (@arrfab) help we manage to track down that there was no request being made by you(or the SIG chair under which the cri-o falls into) to sign and publish the rpm to mirror.centos.org and that backs the issue folks raised [3]. As a solution, i can suggest one (if you are willing to accept it): 1. you follow the process and 1. tag and promote the rpms from -candidate to -testing and then to paas7-crio-114-release 2. create a ticket on bugs.c.o so our Infra folks can sign and publish the rpm which i guess will end up in [4] 2. or we can try to get it under PaaS SIG and then publish it under [5] Once all that is done then i'm happy to even announce on K8s/ CRI mailer as projects like kubespray are using it/ consuming the rpm. Cheers, Dani [1] https://cbs.centos.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=25889 [2] https://cbs.centos.org/koji/taginfo?tagID=1704 [3] https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kubespray/pull/4781#issuecomment-4938274… [4] http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/os/x86_64/Packages/ [5] http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/paas/x86_64/

snmp walk not working in FIPS compliant algorithms
by Maheshwari, Shagun 24 May '19

24 May '19

Hi, When we attempt to do SNMP walk v3 in CentOS7 when its FIPS enabled, we get the below error: aes_misc.c(74): OpenSSL internal error, assertion failed: Low level API call to cipher AES forbidden in FIPS mode! FIPS support SHA and AES. This error is coming internally and it needs changes from rpm level. When we try the same scenario in RHEL 6 servers, we don't get this error and we get output successfully. The SNMP rpm we use is net-snmp-5.7.2-28.el7.x86_64 Please let us know how we can resolve this error? Any patch is available for this or not. Regards, Shagun

Drafting the June newsletter, contributors welcome
by Rich Bowen 21 May '19

21 May '19

I'm in the process of drafting the June newsletter, which I hope to post on Tuesday, June 4th. If you would like to contribute to it in any way, please let me know. In response to last month's newsletter, I received the following comment: "Newsletter is great if medium to expert but it’s all Greek to newbie. How about a newbie articles?" To that end, if any of you would like to contribute articles, either to the newsletter, or to the blog in general, on any topic of interest to people of any skill level, please do let me know. It's also worth noting that if you have a CentOS developer account, you can post drafts to the blog - instructions are here: https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/Promo/Blog -- Rich Bowen - rbowen(a)redhat.com @CentOSProject // @rbowen 859 351 9166
