Does CentOS wants to start compiling also Extended Update Support (EUS) rpms? (Instead of EUS, Red Hat seems to call this also "Long Life".)
- From the extended list of errata you can see many addon rpms which are all Open Source. In addition to the base Enterprise Linux, does CentOS want to recompile additional products?
I am pretty sure that Red Hat does not publish the "Extended Update Support" source files on their FTP site. Do you know of a public place where those SRPMS are at?
My understanding of this program is that the SRPMS are only suppled to the specific customers.
Hello,
I haven't seen them available publically.
Once you go to this small set of changes, I think doing this only per specific customer also makes a lot of sense. (As a community project, backporting servers to older releases could be a worthwhile project.)
