MirrorManager link redirect issue
by Mike Rochefort 19 Nov '21

19 Nov '21

I just had a merge request[0] pulled into the osinfo-db project that adds CentOS Stream 9 details. This is used by tools like GNOME Boxes to discover and download ISOs as well as configure generic VM information. The MR stems from a user reporting Boxes wasn't listing Stream 9 as an available option. As part of the process I had to provide direct URLs to the Stream 9 ISOs. I would have preferred to have used the MirrorManager links, such as: https://mirrors.centos.org/mirrorlist?path=/9-stream/BaseOS/x86_64/iso/Cent… But these URLs don't redirect properly with tools like wget or curl, instead returning a list of available mirror links to download from. It works just fine in a browser, maybe I don't know the proper flags to pass to make this work as expected. Currently the base URL used is from the mirror.stream.centos.org site. Is there a way to make the MM links work, or is pointing to the CentOS mirror alright for this? [0] https://gitlab.com/libosinfo/osinfo-db/-/merge_requests/366 -- Mike Rochefort

Hi, As the $SUBJECT says, after the latest release of Centos 8, the Devel[1] repo is not populated. I can see the packages for 8.4.2105[2]. Is this expected for this latest release? --- Regards, Odilon 1 - http://mirror.centos.org/centos/8/Devel/x86_64/ 2 - https://vault.centos.org/8.4.2105/Devel/

qemu-kvm 6.1.0 with 16 PCIE root ports is broken
by Yedidyah Bar David 18 Nov '21

18 Nov '21

Hi all, I now filed [1]. Until it's sorted out, perhaps it's possible to temporarily handle this by excluding/removing the packages on the Stream repo, or something similar? This is especially problematic for oVirt users, because oVirt defaults to creating VMs with 16 such ports, thus all VMs are broken. Thanks and best regards, [1] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2024605 -- Didi

CentOS 7 updates not posted on centos-announce mailinglist anymore
by Gerd v. Egidy 18 Nov '21

18 Nov '21

Hi, new packages for CentOS 7 used to be posted on the centos-announce mailinglist. The last one posted was on 27th of September, but there were several updated rpms released in October and November that were not announced on the mailinglist. The mailinglist itself seems still to be working, as I got the announcement for Centos 8 2111 just fine. Could somebody responsible for the update / release process please look into this? Having the updates announced via mailinglist is very helpful if you do not have fully automatic updating activated, but do your own manual QA process before updating your servers. Thanks. Kind regards, Gerd

Re: [CentOS-devel] KDE Status in EPEL8
by Troy Dawson 16 Nov '21

16 Nov '21

KDE Plasma Desktop has been rebuilt on RHEL 8.5. The rebuilt KDE packages have been pushed to epel-testing. To test and/or use these packages do dnf --enablerepo=epel-testing update Note1: This hasn't made it out to all the mirrors yet. I don't know how long that takes, best bet it to try tomorrow. Note2: To get these into regular epel8, please give karma on their bodhi pages https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2021-8ecda13ade https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2021-233b6d1f6f https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2021-616c07a91d Note3: There are two known packages that will not install/update right now * k3b -- This requires cdrskin which will be in epel-testing tomorrow. -- https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2021-11dab2f583 * kde-gtk-config -- This package snuck in on accident. It shouldn't affect your updates. -- This requires breeze-gtk, which is still being worked on to get it to work on epel8 Troy Dawson On Thu, Nov 11, 2021 at 3:19 PM Troy Dawson <tdawson(a)redhat.com> wrote: > The qt5 libraries in RHEL 8.5 are at a higher version than they were in > RHEL 8.4. > This is causing RHEL 8 machines that have the KDE Plasma Desktop unable to > do an update due to qt5 version dependencies. > > A rebuild of the KDE Plasma Desktop in EPEL8 is currently underway. > It usually takes 3-4 days for all the packages to be rebuilt, as long as > the builders co-operate. > We expect the packages to be in epel8-testing by Monday, November 15. > > Thank you for your patience. > Troy Dawson > >

Is advanced-virt (Virtualization SIG) not relevant anymore with latest CentOS Stream 8?
by Igor Raits 16 Nov '21

16 Nov '21

Hello, I've noticed that the latest c8s repos ship libvirt/qemu-kvm (and other related things) newer than the advanced virtualization repository… which brings me to a question if it is still worth using those builds or not? I've been trying to dig into some mailing list conversations (which are pretty much non-existent at this point) and IRC meetings (which I did not see in October, but found one in November[1]). Found only mention that libvirt/qemu will not be available for power arches since c9s and that's what probably virt sig will build (if my understanding of meeting minutes are correct). Any piece of information would be very helpful :) [1] https://www.centos.org/minutes/2021/November/centos-meeting.2021-11-03-17.0…

CPE Weekly Update – Week of November 08th – 12nd
by Michal Konecny 11 Nov '21

11 Nov '21

Hi everyone, This is a weekly report from the CPE (Community Platform Engineering) Team. If you have any questions or feedback, please respond to this report or contact us on #redhat-cpe channel on libera.chat (https://libera.chat/) If you wish to read this in form of a blog post, check the post on Fedora community blog: https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/cpe-weekly-update-week-of-november-… # Highlights of the week ## Infrastructure & Release Engineering Goal of this Initiative ----------------------- Purpose of this team is to take care of day to day business regarding CentOS and Fedora Infrastructure and Fedora release engineering work. It’s responsible for services running in Fedora and CentOS infrastructure and preparing things for the new Fedora release (mirrors, mass branching, new namespaces etc.). The ARC (which is a subset of the team) investigates possible initiatives that CPE might take on. Update ------ ### Fedora Infra * Out of freeze, merged a bunch of post freeze work, more to come * Dnssec records finally fully updated away from sha-1 * Ibiblio hosts ipv6 all moved off old net/block * Attempted to move s390x builders to new mainframe, but hit issues, going to try again next week. * Fedora koji upgraded to latest upstream ### CentOS Infra including CentOS CI * Business as usual ### Release Engineering * Epel 9 next is in bodhi * New side tag for f35-kde * Business as usual ## CentOS Stream Goal of this Initiative ----------------------- This initiative is working on CentOS Stream/Emerging RHEL to make this new distribution a reality. The goal of this initiative is to prepare the ecosystem for the new CentOS Stream. Updates ------- * We’ve updated RHEL 9 branching images in Dev Guide * Working on documentation and tidying up docs locations on the compose reporting work showing the diffs between RHEL/c8s/c9s composes * Package additions from RHEL appstream coming through to be added to CentOS Stream repos * Content resolver logic has been reviewed and re-written to accommodate a new buildroot functionality and working through adding package placeholders ## CentOS Duffy CI Goal of this Initiative ----------------------- Duffy is a system within CentOS CI Infra which allows tenants to provision and access bare metal resources of multiple architectures for the purposes of CI testing. We need to add the ability to checkout VMs in CentOS CI in Duffy. We have OpenNebula hypervisor available, and have started developing playbooks which can be used to create VMs using the OpenNebula API, but due to the current state of how Duffy is deployed, we are blocked with new dev work to add the VM checkout functionality. Updates ------- * Finished Work In Progress from last week * Logging * Database model * Configuration Framework * Tests started working successfully on Python 3.10, by magic! Test against Python 3.6 ~ 3.10 in CI. * Work In Progress * API endpoints for all the things * Planning delegating to bare metal and OpenNebula (VMs) ## FCOS OpenShift migration Goal of this Initiative ----------------------- Move current Fedora CoreOS pipeline from the centos-ci OCP4 cluster to the newly deployed fedora infra OCP4 cluster. Updates ------- * New Openshift role sysadmin-openshift to handle installation/configuration of OCP 4 tasks * Added oc client for ocp4 to the batcave01 PR * Pushed changes to allow connections from batcave01 to the ocp4 cluster, follow on ticket opened with RH IT to open ports in firewall also. ## EPEL Goal of this initiative ----------------------- Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (or EPEL) is a Fedora Special Interest Group that creates, maintains, and manages a high quality set of additional packages for Enterprise Linux, including, but not limited to, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), CentOS and Scientific Linux (SL), Oracle Linux (OL). EPEL packages are usually based on their Fedora counterparts and will never conflict with or replace packages in the base Enterprise Linux distributions. EPEL uses much of the same infrastructure as Fedora, including buildsystem, bugzilla instance, updates manager, mirror manager and more. Updates ------- * Fedora s390x builder migration was not successful, had to be rolled back and rescheduled, so epel9-next is still blocked * Epel9-next has been added to bodhi, allowing us to test the push pipeline with noarch packages (epel-release and epel-rpm-macros) * Additional ancillary work in mock-core-configs, bodhi, and fedpkg Kindest regards, CPE Team
