Hi,
inspired by a different thread here, I did a dnf distro-sync on a CS8 node and noticed that subversion would be downgraded:
from subversion-1.10.2-4.module_el8.3.0+703+ba2f61b7 to subversion-1.10.2-3.module_el8.3.0+393+21cd8ae8
Coming from C8 and swapping the repos to CS8 leads to this situation (especially when doing upgrade instead of distro-sync) but that is not my point.
The above downgrade path recovered that subversion in CS8 still does not have
# rpm -q --changelog subversion-1.10.2-4.module_el8.3.0+703+ba2f61b7.x86_64 | head -3 * Mi Feb 10 2021 Joe Orton jorton@redhat.com - 1.10.2-4 - add security fix for CVE-2020-17525
Such question comes here and there again and again. How does the package update process in CS8 looks like? Is the process mature, any glitches. This subversion update already exists in C8 since February. Why is it not incorporated into CS8?
Would CentOS Stream only be promoted as "upstream" development platform, then ... but its also promoted as successor of CentOS Linux for people with production fleeds.
I do not argue that C8S should be like C8 (in a wider sense) but at least it should have some basal property (like updates are at most after 1 or 2 month all there or so ...).
Any insight about the goal of the current process? Any wiki or doc page for that? Some transparency would be my main goal, to have base for decisions ...
I'd really appreciate any feedback.
Thanks, Leon
