rhn-applet-gui
by Johnny Hughes 20 May '04

20 May '04

After doing the updates, my yum and my up2date both tell me the system is totally updated, and it is ... however, my rhn-applet says there are 781 updates ... and it lists as updates packages with exactly the same version ... and even some packages with older versions. Any Ideas? The rhn-applet is: rhn-applet-2.1.4-3.centos.1 Thanks, Johnny Hughes

CentOS 3.1 update2 packages released
by lance＠uklinux.net 20 May '04

20 May '04

The CentOS 3.1 update2 packages have now been released. They are available on mirror.centos.org and should be on all mirrors within a few hours. To update just run 'yum update' Please bugzilla any problems. There was a problem with the pam build in testing not being linked against the laus library, so the released version is a .c0 so that anyone who has installed the testing version will get the real one on updating. The only package that is missing from these updates is rhgb - that needs some artwork and testing and will be done in the next couple of days. The new anaconda and firstboot will be built into a new set of isos - release 3.2 , within the next week or so. Lance -- uklinux.net - The ISP of choice for the discerning Linux user.

CentOS-3.1 update2
by lance＠uklinux.net 20 May '04

20 May '04

Unless anyone shouts I intend to push all the update2/testing stuff into updates for 3.1 later on today - say about 22:00 UTC All the security related updates have already been released. I am not convinced that lack of feedback means that there are no problems, more likely it means that not many people have tested the stuff, but I have had no serious problems and cant do any more testing. The only problem I did see was that the CentOS gpg key had to be re-imported after the update, I assume due to the rpm upgrade. If anyone wants a chance to test the CentOS-3.1 update2 stuff then please shout and I will hold back the release. To test it just uncomment the [testing] repo in yum.conf (but not the gpgcheck line). Any issues either email or post to bugzilla. Thanks Lance -- uklinux.net - The ISP of choice for the discerning Linux user.

Important Change to mirror.caosity.org, mirror.centos.org
by lance＠uklinux.net 19 May '04

19 May '04

mirror.caosity.org is going to become a cluster of 3 servers - using round-robin dns. all uploads need to be done in future to master.caosity.org which will be the new mirror master - the others will sync off of that one. Please make sure that all scripts etc that do uploading are changed to upload to master.caosity.org Once the rr dns records are in place you may find that you may not be able to upload any more as you may hit the wrong server ...
