Hi to all, Am I wrong or the CentOS AppStream repo is heavily lagging behind the RedHat repos? Some examples here:

- the php:7.2 critical security errata published on 2019-11-06 (that's almost 2 weeks ago) [1] [2] is still unavailable in the CentOS AppStream repo leaving systems vulnerable to an already exploited bug [3];

- (this is less critical IMHO) new yum modules published in EL8.1 on on 2019-11-05 (php:7.3 nginx:1.16, ruby:2.6, nodejs:12) are still unavailable in the CentOS AppStream repo;

I'm wondering if it's unintended and justified by lack of time and resources or it's a sneaky strategy to let users choose RHEL for running production systems instead of CentOS. I'm really sorry to say that but the issue described here and the lack of a security errata bulletin [4], makes CentOS8 almost unusable on a production environment.

Thanks for your attention. Regards

Angelo Barney
