Will PPC support follow? Specifically P5? Thanks for the hard work. -----Original Message----- From: centos-bounces(a)centos.org [mailto:centos-bounces@centos.org] On Behalf Of Johnny Hughes Sent: Thursday, October 13, 2005 4:15 AM To: CentOS-Announce Cc: CentOS ML Subject: [CentOS] CentOS-4.2 is Released for i386, x86_64, ia64, s390,s390x and alpha architectures The CentOS development team is pleased to announce the availability of CentOS-4.2 in the following architectures: i386 - This distribution supports AMD (K6, K7, Thunderbird, Athlon, Athlon XP, Sempron), Pentium (Classic, Pro, II, III, 4, Celeron, M, Xeon), VIA (C3, Eden, Luke, C7) processors. x86_64 - This distribution supports AMD (Athlon 64, Opteron) and Intel Pentium (Xeon EM64T) processors. ia64 - This distribution supports Intel Itanium2 processors. s390 - This distribution supports IBM S/390 processors. s390x - This distribution supports IBM Z-Series servers. alpha - This distribution supports the DEC Alpha processor. There may be a separate release announcement for individual architectures. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Current CentOS 4 users may upgrade by using up2date or yum and the normal upgrade process using the following commands: yum upgrade or up2date -u -------------------------------------------------------------------- The CentOS specific release notes for this upgrade are available here: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/os/i386/RELEASE-NOTES-en.html Documentation for CentOS 4 (including upstream release notes) is available here: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/docs/ You may download the installation CD or DVD ISOs via bittorrent from this link: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/isos/ CD ISOs may also be downloaded via publicly available external mirrors: http://www.centos.org/mirrors/ -------------------------------------------------------------------- Major changes in this version of CentOS include: 1. Upgraded yum. Yum has been upgraded to version 2.4.x, which adds a sqlite database backend for local metadata storage. This allows yum updates to be much faster than they were previously. The following packages are added or upgraded to facilitate the new yum: createrepo, centos-yumconf, sqlite, sqlite-devel, python-elementtree, python-sqlite, python-urlgrabber, yum. 2. SystemTap. CentOS-4.2 contains a technology preview release of SystemTap. SystemTap is a dynamic system profiling framework. SystemTap is only included as a preview, and should not be used in production at this time. Please see the SystemTap website for more information: http://sourceware.org/systemtap/ 3. Updated and added packages. There is a list of all packages either added or upgraded since CentOS 4.1 in the upstream release notes, please see the upstream release notes for your architecture for CentOS-4.2 on the CentOS documentation page: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/docs/ -------------------------------------------------------------------- ISSUES: There is a known issue upstream when upgrading x86_64 servers. The issue seems to be related to the new audit and kernel packages when performing an upgrade. If you first install the new kernel and audit packages, then reboot and upgrade the rest of the packages, it seems to minimize this problem. Please see this bug report: http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=1037 -------------------------------------------------------------------- To stay current with CentOS: Visit our website at http://www.centos.org Join the CentOS mailing list at: http://lists.caosity.org/mailman/listinfo/centos Join various team members on IRC at irc.freenode.net #centos -------------------------------------------------------------------- Note: It may take a couple days for some of the mirrors to catch up. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Enjoy, The CentOS Team *********************************************************************************** This transmittal may contain confidential information intended solely for the addressee.

Should I and can I upgrade GTK+/PyGTK?
by Dave Gutteridge 13 Oct '05

13 Oct '05

I'm trying out different music players. One that looks promising is called Quod Libet: http://www.sacredchao.net/quodlibet I downloaded the tar file and attempted to install it. I got this message: [dave@localhost quodlibet-0.13.1]$ ./quodlibet.py E: You need GTK+ 2.6 and PyGTK 2.6 or greater. E: You have GTK+ 2.4.13 and PyGTK 2.4.0. E: Please upgrade GTK+/PyGTK. I tried a YUM update, but it didn't say anything about new versions of GTK or PyGTK. What am I not understanding about this situation? Dave

I need a package updated...
by Ryan Allen 13 Oct '05

13 Oct '05

...Where do I go? Hi please forgive me if I missed something obvious, but I've been reading and searching for a couple days to no avail. I'm trying to get the latest cinelerra running on CentOS4.1 on a dual Xeon machine. I need: cinelerra: /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.4' not found (required by cinelerra) (x86_64) and apparently the latest available is: libstdc++-3.4.3-22.1 (x86_64) So, my question is, who maintains these packages? Is there a way to request an upgrade? It is easy to build your own? Or am I opening up a can of worms. If so, where can I turn to for info? I have found libstdc++-3.4.4-2 but it's for ia64. Thanks for any suggestions... -- Ryan -- +-----------------------------+ | ryan(a)the-summit.net | | http://www.the-summit.net | +-----------------------------+

Updates not catching up ?
by mbneto 13 Oct '05

13 Oct '05

Hi, I have downloaded and installed centos 4.1 from DVD and I a little confused with the update procedure. The faq from the centos.org site mentions something like 72 hrs (or less) from one security update to goes from the sources.rpm from rh to centos. I was cheking rh's site (https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/rhel4as-errata.html) and saw one update to mysql (https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/rhel4as-errata.html) that I can't get using yum upgrade. For example. My mysql is mysql.i386 0:4.1.10a-2.RHEL4.1 and rh is mysql-4.1.12-3.RHEL4.1.src.rpm.. I am using the standard yum.conf/yum.repos.d. Is this a mirror problem or it is taking longer than expected for the updates to be available ? tks.
