Hello,
I have few questions related to the cloud images provides for c8s and c9s, i.e.:
- https://cloud.centos.org/centos/8-stream/x86_64/images/
- https://cloud.centos.org/centos/9-stream/x86_64/images/
- I see the c9s images are regularly updated, while the c8s images not;
is this wanted, or simply a mistake/miss somewhere? If so, will they be kept up-to-date just like the c9s images?
CentOS Stream 9 is starting the full RHEL developers doing development in CentOS Stream and we are doing things first there. At some point in the near future (soon TM :D) all the processes in Stream 9 will be moved over to Stream 8. Once we change to the new process, everything should start happening at a similar interval.
- are the Vagrant images there officially supported? Let's say you use
one, and find a bug; then check on a "classic" installation (baremetal/VM), and the bug isn't there; can users report problems in those cases?
- would it be possible to have either unversioned or "-latest" symlinks
for the latest versions of all the files (i.e. images, checksums, etc)? This way, it will be much easier for users to fetch the latest versions with no need to change URLs frequently. Of course, the assumption is that users of this are always willing to use the latest version.
We currently do that with ISO and I see no reason not to do it for Cloud Images as well. That is a question I can ask.
Thanks!
