Re: [CentOS] Any downside to mount -o noatime?
by Joshua Kramer 11 Feb '22

11 Feb '22

You may get just as much SSD "savings" by putting /var/log and /tmp into a RAM disk. I do this with all of my Raspberry Pi's, since SD cards burn through pretty quickly, and I have several that haven't had their SD cards replaced in a couple years.

[CentOS Stream 8] Update of IPA server broken - bind-dyndb-ldap needs to be rebuilt?
by Mathieu Baudier 10 Feb '22

10 Feb '22

Hello, We are testing an IPA/IDM infrastructure which is a mix of RHEL 8 and CentOS Stream 8 environments. The configuration has been completed since last summer, and it is working fine between updates. Currently, the CentOS Stream 8 IPA servers cannot upgrade. I put the whole error message below, but after analyzing a bit, it seems to be that the problem is between: bind-dyndb-ldap (for which there is no new update) and bind-libs-lite (for which a new update is available) $ sudo dnf upgrade bind-libs-lite* Error: Problem: problem with installed package bind-dyndb-ldap-11.6-2.module_el8.5.0+750+c59b186b.x86_64 - package bind-dyndb-ldap-11.6-2.module_el8.5.0+750+c59b186b.x86_64 requires libdns.so.1112()(64bit), but none of the providers can be installed - cannot install both bind-libs-lite-32:9.11.36-2.el8.x86_64 and bind-libs-lite-32:9.11.26-6.el8.x86_64 - cannot install both bind-libs-lite-32:9.11.36-2.el8.x86_64 and bind-libs-lite-32:9.11.26-3.el8.x86_64 - cannot install both bind-libs-lite-32:9.11.36-2.el8.x86_64 and bind-libs-lite-32:9.11.26-4.el8_4.x86_64 - cannot install the best update candidate for package bind-libs-lite-32:9.11.26-6.el8.x86_64 The update bind-libs-lite (32:9.11.36-2) seems to offer: /usr/lib64/libdns.so.1115 while bind-dyndb-ldap (11.6-2.module_el8.5.0+750+c59b186b) seems to still require precisely: /usr/lib64/libdns.so.1112 $ sudo dnf provides */libdns.so* ... bind-libs-lite-32:9.11.26-6.el8.x86_64 : Libraries for working with the DNS protocol Repo : @System Matched from: Filename : /usr/lib64/libdns.so.1112 Filename : /usr/lib64/libdns.so.1112.0.2 ... bind-libs-lite-32:9.11.36-2.el8.x86_64 : Libraries for working with the DNS protocol Repo : appstream Matched from: Filename : /usr/lib64/libdns.so.1115 Filename : /usr/lib64/libdns.so.1115.0.3 ... $ sudo dnf list bind-libs-lite bind-dyndb-ldap Installed Packages bind-dyndb-ldap.x86_64 11.6-2.module_el8.5.0+750+c59b186b @appstream bind-libs-lite.x86_64 32:9.11.26-6.el8 @appstream Available Packages bind-libs-lite.i686 32:9.11.36-2.el8 appstream bind-libs-lite.x86_64 32:9.11.36-2.el8 appstream Please note that, of course, the module stream idm:DL1 is enabled: $ sudo dnf module list idm* CentOS Stream 8 - AppStream Name Stream Profiles Summary idm DL1 [e] adtrust, client, common [d], dns [i], server The Red Hat Enterprise Linux Identity Management system module idm client [d] common [d] RHEL IdM long term support client module Also, as can be expected, these updates are not yet available on the *RHEL 8* IPA servers: $ sudo dnf list bind-libs-lite bind-dyndb-ldap Updating Subscription Management repositories.

(there are updates of the ipa packages which are pending there, juts not bind-dyndb-ldap) Also, should I rather send such reports of our CentOS Stream testing to another mailing-list? (devel?) Or book them into Red Hat's bugzilla? Thanks in advance for your comments!

c9s: CPU ISA level lower than required
by Alessio 07 Feb '22

07 Feb '22

Hello. I had a CentOS Stream 9 installation in a KVM VM. Today a "dnf upgrade" lead to an unusable system: dnf, rpm commands complain that "glibc cpu does not support x86-64-v2" or "CPU ISA level is lower than required". The updates leading to this state seem to be: python3 3.9.10-1, glibc 2.34-21, rpm 4.16.1.3-10 What happened? Thanks, A.

Assitance with perl
by H 03 Feb '22

03 Feb '22

I am writing a long bash script under CentOS 7 where perl is used for manipulating some external files. So far I am using perl one-liners to do so but ran into a problem when I need to append text to an external file. Here is a simplified example in the bash script where txt is a bash variable which I built containing a longish text with multiple newlines: txt="a b$'\n'cd ef$'\n'g h$'\n'ij kl" A simplified perl one-liner to append the text in the variable above to some file in the bash script would be: perl -pe 'eof && do{print $_'"${txt}"'; exit}' someexternalfile.txt This works when fine when $txt does /not/ contain any spaces but falls apart when it does. I would like to keep the above structure, ie using bash variables to build text strings and one-liners to do the text manipulation. Hopefully there is a "simple" solution to do this, I have tried many variations and failed miserably... Note that I also want to use a similar pattern to do substitutions in external files, I would thus like to use the same code pattern. Thanks.
