re CVE errata in CentOS Stream
by Naoto Kobayashi 19 Feb '21

19 Feb '21

Dear community, I would like to ask a following question: - How are CVEs handled in CentOS Stream? The answer in faq page (https://centos.org/distro-faq <https://centos.org/distro-faq>) states that security issues will be updated in CentOS Stream after they are solved in the current RHEL release. However, CentOS Steam 8 solved CVE-2020-15437 (kernel) while RHEL 8 has not (as of February 17,2021). Does the order of security updates between RHEL and CentOS Stream depend on the situation? Best regards, --- Naoto Kobayashi

Cloud SiG Membership Cleanup - Completed
by Amy Marrich 19 Feb '21

19 Feb '21

Over the last few weeks I have reached out to everyone on the SiG's pending and current membership lists in preparation for the upcoming access merger. Everyone was asked if they wanted to remain a member and where their interests were to help drive the group. Based on replies or lack of a reply the lists have now been cleaned up. If anyone was removed and would still like to be a member please re-apply as we'd love to have you. If you never knew there was a Cloud SiG please apply as we welcome new members! Any questions please reach out!

Cleaning up modulefailsafe/ stuff correctly - libuv saga from EPEL to AppStream
by Anthony Alba 19 Feb '21

19 Feb '21

Background : needing libuv-devel when AppStream/Devel versions were not in sync I installed modular libuv 1.36 from epel-modular. Subsequently when AppStream/Devel synced at 1.38 I had difficulty removing evidence of 1.36 due to /var/lib/dnf/modulefailsafe. dnf clean all didn't help there. What is the correct way to clean up modulefailsafe/ so that it unblocks non-modular packages? I had even removed all reference to EPEL repos but didn't realise the existence of the /var/lib/dnf/modulefailsafe/ lock files. Cheers Anthony

Non-modular libuv 1.38 is filtered out by modules
by Anthony Alba 19 Feb '21

19 Feb '21

Hi centos-devel, I can't figure out what is blocking libuv 1.38 from AppStream from being installed. * I have disabled EPEL Modular 8 as there is a modular libuv 1.36 inside there. * up to date CentOS 8 machine * using default CentOS-Linux*.repo files, and not using a local mirror dnf config-manager --disable epel-modular dnf module provides libuv Last metadata expiration check: 0:00:48 ago on Fri 19 Feb 2021 09:10:38 AM. # dnf install libuv Last metadata expiration check: 0:01:40 ago on Fri 19 Feb 2021 09:10:38 AM. All matches were filtered out by modular filtering for argument: libuv Error: Unable to find a match: libuv dnf repository-packages appstream list | grep libuv # shows nothing dnf install cmake Last metadata expiration check: 0:03:25 ago on Fri 19 Feb 2021 09:10:38 AM. Error: Problem: package cmake-3.11.4-7.el8.x86_64 requires libuv.so.1()(64bit), but none of the providers can be installed - conflicting requests - package libuv-1:1.38.0-2.el8.x86_64 is filtered out by modular filtering (try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages) Any ideas?

CentOS AWS cloud images
by duke586 18 Feb '21

18 Feb '21

Hello! Thank you very much for the up-to-date AWS images for CentOS 7 on https://centos.org/download/aws-images/ . They contain all the necessary drivers for fast networking, but unfortunately the images lack a simple flag ("SRIOV") on the image to activate some of the drivers. The bug has been open since 2015: https://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=8541 Reading related bugs, it sounds like the flag may have been added in the meantime, however right now it is missing (tested on ami-0686851c4e7b1a8e1). How can I help resolve this? Best regards, Viktor.

Re: [CentOS-devel] CentOS Stream Container images available on quay.io
by Sean Ho 17 Feb '21

17 Feb '21

> ## Next Steps > - We are still in discussions on how to push these properly to Dockerhub. > Since CentOS is an Official Image, there are some extra requirements here that we're working through. Does it means generating smaller former container image by kickstart- like tools instaed of additional scripts based on Red Hat UBI 8? Cheers, Sean

by lejeczek 17 Feb '21

17 Feb '21

Hi devel I've noticed a while ago that Redhat's Bugzilla has had, in "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8" as one of the options "CentOS Stream" - which is where I've been recently reporting to. But I wonder about bugs relating to CentOS infra/repos - where to submit those, would you know? many thanks, L.

new CS8 module streams
by Carl George 15 Feb '21

15 Feb '21

Howdy everyone, I want to call attention to some new modular content that we are shipping in CentOS Stream 8 that is not yet available for RHEL 8. We've added the following optional (non-default) module streams to existing modules. You have to explicitly enable these streams to get this content. If you don't, dnf will still use the respective default stream, or a stream that you previously enabled. mariadb:10.5 postgresql:13 redis:6 subversion:1.14 swig:4.0 We also recently added a new python39 module. Similar to python38, this module can be installed in parallel with other Python modules. You can use the alternatives system to set it as the default python3 command if you wish. This new modular content is planned to be included in RHEL 8.4, but you can get it now in CS8. Please try it out and share your feedback. -- Carl George
