need some testing help
by Karanbir Singh 30 Jul '09

The Bind update for EL4 was just announced, packages that fix the issues ( see https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2009-1179.html ) are available for C4 at http://dev.centos.org/~z00dax/c4-bind/ we dont normally release updates till the packages used for the build are also available, however since this is a major issue - it would be nice to get these updates out right away. Keeping that in mind could someone test for : a) install these packages, make sure they work for the basic stuff b) update an existing bind install on C4 and make sure it does not break anything c) ensure that the deps for the actual binaries are met cleanly within the existing CentOS-4 os + updates set. As soon as we can get reasonable testing feedback here, we can push these packages into the released updates pool. Thanks -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : 2522219@icq

Dear everyone: I have a question, when I try to compile *kernel-2.6.30.1*, but after I compiled modules, I always cannot get any .ko files, and it showed: *Building modules, stage 2. MODPOST 0 modules* My working kernel is *2.6.18-128.2.1.el5* CentOS 5, and I have update everything to up-to-data by "yum update". Did anyone know why it is? By the way, my compile kernel step is that: 1) make mrproper 2) make menuconfig 3) make bzImage 4) make modules 5) make install 6) make modules_install Refer to: http://www.microsuncn.com Best Regards Alan Zheng

Questions about the centos rebuild process / s390x related
by Sascha Thomas Spreitzer 11 Jul '09

11 Jul '09

Hello hackers, i have been asked from some companies, 1. how long it would take to rebuild a centos from scratch if I would have a whole CP (common processor) for it. 2. What the build process includes, meaning "steps to success" 3. whether the licenses force a maintainer to push the resulting distribution upstream. 4. In which cases the maintainer is liable for the resulting distribution rpms, binaries, etc... It would be VERY helpful if I can clarify those questions. It might spend us 1 CP. -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen, / with kind regards, Sascha Thomas Spreitzer http://spreitzer.name/
