Hi. We have another leap second coming. Have past bugs with Centos and leap seconds (specifically high CPU spikes) been resolved? Should we be worried? -G

CentOS 6.x desktop specs: minimum requirements
by Niki Kovacs 25 Mar '15

25 Mar '15

Hi, I often have to deal with relatively obsolete hardware in schools, public libraries, small town halls, etc. I still have a handful of CentOS 5.x installations around for these, but I wonder what CentOS 6.x desktop specs are, e. g. the minimum requirements (in terms of CPU and RAM) to reasonably run it. Will a battered first-generation P-IV with 512 MB RAM be sufficient? How much RAM does 6.x's graphical installer require to even start? Or is it better to opt for CentOS 5.x on this sort of dinosaur?

RHEL/CentOS bugfixing policy for LibreOffice, Firefox, Thunderbird?
by Niki Kovacs 25 Mar '15

25 Mar '15

Hi, RHEL/CentOS releases 5.x, 6.x and 7.x are all shipping reasonably recent versions of Firefox ESR, Thunderbird ESR and LibreOffice. Until recently I've been using Slackware Linux as a base system for client's desktops and workstations. Since my primary aim is reliability, I always tried to opt for the most stable releases, so for example I'd rather go for LibreOffice 4.2.8 than 4.3.1. A question just crossed my mind: does RHEL include software like LibreOffice, Firefox, Thunderbird "as is" from upstream, or is there some RHEL-specific quality control and bugfixing for this kind of software?

can't do a yum install of apache C7
by Tim Dunphy 25 Mar '15

25 Mar '15

Hey all, I'm logged into a CentOS 7 box and trying to install apache. Not having any luck, as it's not being found. Which is odd, because I have the right repos enabled: [root@hadoop1:/etc/yum.repos.d] #cat /etc/redhat-release Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.0 (Maipo) [root@hadoop1:/etc/yum.repos.d] #yum repolist Loaded plugins: amazon-id, rhui-lb repo id repo name status *epel/x86_64* Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 7 - x86_64 7,454 *remi * Les RPM de remi pour Enterprise Linux - x86_64 1,862 *remi-php56 * Les RPM de remi de PHP 5.6 pour Enterprise Linux 7 - x86_64 277 *rpmforge* RHEL 7Server - RPMforge.net - dag 245 *webtatic*/x86_64 Webtatic Repository EL7 - x86_64 325 repolist: 10,163 And when I go to install, this is what I find: [root@hadoop1:/etc/yum.repos.d] #yum install httpd Loaded plugins: amazon-id, rhui-lb No package httpd available. Error: Nothing to do Does anyone have any ideas why this is failing? Thanks, Tim -- GPG me!! gpg --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys F186197B

AWOL rpm
by Ali Corbin 24 Mar '15

24 Mar '15

About a month ago I did an upgrade of glibc on one of our test centos5 systems. And yum happily gave me about 8 packages, including both bitted-nesses of glibc-common. This morning I was showing a co-worker how to upgrade glibc. And he found that yum wouldn't give him glibc-common-2.5-123.el5_11.1.i386.rpm. So I browsed to the web interface of one of the centos5 mirrors, and couldn't find it either. Not in the x86_64 tree anyway. Did that package disappear on purpose?
