Hi all,
Sorry to be a bug here and ask this. But I was just wondering if CentOS SCL for EL6 is still being updated?
Just wondering because yesterday (The 17th) RedHat released a couple of security updates for MySQL 5.5 and MariaDB 5.5 and it would appear that C6 has yet to receive these updates, where as EL7 and EL5 did.
Which makes me wonder if the SCL for C6 has been either discontinued or the update was simply forgotten/unnoticed or had build issues?
Just curious mainly, if it is now discontinued I'll happily compile the update myself, if not I'll happily wait :-).
Either way, I'd just like to know what's happening so I can make plans going forward on a couple of production machines.
Anyhow, Thank you for your time.
Note: Posted on -devel list as this really is a question more geared towards the CentOS team more so than it's users so the correct people see it.

We are currently reworking how we do SCLs in CentOS.
We are going to be doing them all in a SIG, see this link:
http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories/SCL
I will try to specifically build the security updates for those packages now (and maintain Security updates for SCLs already released), but expect SCL support to shift to that SIG in the near future.

OK,
I as part of the previous discussions about SCLs and missing build requirements for the RHEL 1.2 SCL releases (etc.) .. it was decided that CentOS would maintain updates for the SCL packages we have already released.
These include httpd24, mariadb55, mysql55, nodejs010, perl516, php54, postgresql92, python27, python33, ruby193, scl-utils, and v8314.
In keeping with that, the following updates have been released:
gyp-0.1-0.6.1010svn.el6.centos.alt.noarch.rpm gyp-0.1-0.6.1010svn.el6.centos.alt.src.rpm mariadb55-mariadb-5.5.40-10.el6.centos.alt.src.rpm mariadb55-mariadb-5.5.40-10.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm mariadb55-mariadb-bench-5.5.40-10.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm mariadb55-mariadb-debuginfo-5.5.40-10.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm mariadb55-mariadb-devel-5.5.40-10.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm mariadb55-mariadb-libs-5.5.40-10.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm mariadb55-mariadb-server-5.5.40-10.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm mariadb55-mariadb-test-5.5.40-10.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm mysql55-mysql-5.5.40-1.el6.centos.alt.src.rpm mysql55-mysql-5.5.40-1.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm mysql55-mysql-bench-5.5.40-1.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm mysql55-mysql-debuginfo-5.5.40-1.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm mysql55-mysql-devel-5.5.40-1.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm mysql55-mysql-libs-5.5.40-1.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm mysql55-mysql-server-5.5.40-1.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm mysql55-mysql-test-5.5.40-1.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm nodejs010-1.2-29.el6.centos.alt.src.rpm nodejs010-1.2-29.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm nodejs010-build-1.2-29.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm nodejs010-runtime-1.2-29.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm nodejs010-scldevel-1.2-29.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.src.rpm php54-php-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-bcmath-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-cli-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-common-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-dba-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-debuginfo-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-devel-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-enchant-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-fpm-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-gd-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-imap-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-intl-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-ldap-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-mbstring-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-mysqlnd-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-odbc-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-pdo-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-pgsql-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-process-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-pspell-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-recode-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-snmp-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-soap-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-tidy-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-xml-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm php54-php-xmlrpc-5.4.16-22.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm v8-3.14.5.10-6.el6.centos.alt.src.rpm v8-3.14.5.10-6.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm v8-debuginfo-3.14.5.10-6.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm v8-devel-3.14.5.10-6.el6.centos.alt.x86_64.rpm
Note: gyp-* is now required to build the latest v8314, and the gyp-* packages will live in the scl-utils directory with yaml-* (another package required for one of the SCLs) and scl-utils-*.
These files have been released and are syncing to the mirrors ... they should be on mirror.centos.org within 30 minutes.
We will continue to maintain those 12 SCLs as long as they are maintained upstream or until they are taken over by a SIG. We will not add SCLs to CentOS-7 or any more than those 12 to CentOS-6 until a SIG is formed and decides what to build and maintain.
Thanks, Johnny Hughes

Hi Johnny,
Thanks for your response(s) much appreciated.
I am glad to hear the current SCL repository packages will continue to receive updates until a SIG takes them over :-).
I'll look into the SIG builds of CentOS and see if it's possible to simply add their repositories to an existing install of CentOS for the sole purpose of grabbing RHEL SCL packages (With the help of yum-priorities of course) :-).
Given me a fair bit to think about though, so got some planning to do as well :-).
It's great to hear they are updated for now though gives me a bit of breathing space when it comes to planning and testing :-).
