epoch rpm el8 obsolete?
by Leon Fauster 09 Jul '19

09 Jul '19

I am building a new workstation based on EL8 now. As someone else here mentioned, the raw EL8 distribution is unusable as a workstation. Therefore I am building lot of additional packages. Today I came across a problem with a custom package with an Epoch version, that kills the yum/dnf update process (it tries to find a "best" package etc.). My actually question; is the RPM Epoch stanza obsolete now (for EL8)? I remember that they also started to delete Groups categories ... -- LF

adding uefi to kickstart CentOS 7
by Jerry Geis 09 Jul '19

09 Jul '19

I am trying to add an efi partition to my working kickstart file. bootloader --driveorder=sda --append="rhgb quiet biosdevname=0 net.ifnames=0" clearpart --all --initlabel part / --ondisk=sda --fstype xfs --size=20000 --asprimary part swap --ondisk=sda --size=4000 --asprimary part /boot/efi --ondisk=sda --fstype efi --size=1000 --asprimary part /home --ondisk=sda --fstype xfs --size=1 --asprimary --grow the line with /boot/efi is the only new item other then "removing" --location=mbr from the bootloader line. The install is not working. It stops on the Installation part with selections 1-8. I see no errors on screen - but the selection for "Install source" has a "!" and "error setting up install source" is there. when I goto another console and run fdisk -l /dev/sda nothing shows so my partitions are not getting setup. What did I miss to setup efi ? Thanks, Jerry

CentOS, Red Hat, and IBM
by Rich Bowen 09 Jul '19

09 Jul '19

CentOS community, Today marks a new day in the 26-year history of Red Hat. IBM has finalized its acquisition of Red Hat (https://www.redhat.com/en/about/press-releases/ibm-closes-landmark-acquisit…) which will operate as a distinct unit within IBM moving forward. What does this mean for Red Hat’s contributions to the CentOS project? In short, nothing. Red Hat always has and will continue to be a champion for open source and projects like CentOS. IBM is committed to Red Hat’s independence and role in open source software communities so that we can continue this work without interruption or changes. Our mission, governance, and objectives remain the same. We will continue to execute the existing project roadmap. Red Hat associates will continue to contribute to the upstream in the same ways they have been. And, as always, we will continue to help upstream projects be successful and contribute to welcoming new members and maintaining the project. We will do this together, with the community, as we always have. If you have questions or would like to learn more about today’s news, I encourage you to review the list of materials below. Red Hat CTO Chris Wright will host an online Q&A session in the coming days where you can ask questions you may have about what the acquisition means for Red Hat and our involvement in open source communities. Details will be announced on the Red Hat blog - https://www.redhat.com/en/blog Press release - https://www.redhat.com/en/about/press-releases/ibm-closes-landmark-acquisit… Chris Wright blog - Red Hat and IBM: Accelerating the adoption of open source - https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/red-hat-and-ibm-accelerating-adoption-open-s… FAQ on Red Hat Community Blog - https://community.redhat.com/blog/2019/07/faq-for-communities/ -- Rich Bowen - rbowen(a)redhat.com - CentOS Community Manager @CentOSProject // @rbowen

by Jerry Geis 09 Jul '19

09 Jul '19

I am trying to play with qemu uefi booting... I found the OVMF package and installed it. I added the "-bios /usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_CODE.secboot.fd" to my command line. when running it says cannot load "/usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_CODE.secboot.fd" The file is there. I'm trying this on CentOS 7.6 How do I correctly boot UEFI with qemu ? Thanks Jerry

where are all the Redhat 8 -devel packages?
by Florin Andrei 09 Jul '19

09 Jul '19

I'm probably missing something really simple. I've installed an RH8 IAM in AWS and I'm trying to build packages on it. I've noticed there are many *-devel packages that I cannot install: ######################################## [ec2-user@site1-vpn ~]$ sudo yum install trousers-devel Last metadata expiration check: 1:10:41 ago on Thu 04 Jul 2019 01:01:14 AM UTC. No match for argument: trousers-devel Error: Unable to find a match ######################################## However, if I download trousers-0.3.14-2.el8.src.rpm from Redhat and I build it on my RH8 instance, it builds the -devel package: ######################################## Wrote: /home/ec2-user/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/trousers-0.3.14-2.el8.x86_64.rpm Wrote: /home/ec2-user/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/trousers-lib-0.3.14-2.el8.x86_64.rpm Wrote: /home/ec2-user/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/trousers-static-0.3.14-2.el8.x86_64.rpm Wrote: /home/ec2-user/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/trousers-devel-0.3.14-2.el8.x86_64.rpm Wrote: /home/ec2-user/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/trousers-debugsource-0.3.14-2.el8.x86_64.rpm Wrote: /home/ec2-user/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/trousers-debuginfo-0.3.14-2.el8.x86_64.rpm Wrote: /home/ec2-user/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/trousers-lib-debuginfo-0.3.14-2.el8.x86_64.rpm ######################################## Same issue for json-c and json-c-devel and other packages. What's going on, what is the little detail I'm totally missing? I've checked the repositories in yum, I think everything important is enabled. -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/

gedit font size
by Chris Olson 07 Jul '19

07 Jul '19

We recently installed CentOS 7 on a system. We chose the GNOME desktop install option and have used yum to install all of the available updates. The first run of yum update yielded about 450 megabytes of items to be installed or updated. All of the updates have been successful. One issue with our new CentOS system is that some users want to use gedit, but the displayed font size is extremely small. Internet searches for a way to increase font size have not yielded any useful information. Is there a standard method to make the gedit font size larger? Thanks.

Hi All - I have a CentOS 7 (image) that is fully updated. However its not UEFI. Is there a way to use an older computer and migrate my current image to be UEFI so this new UEFI only computer I have will boot. Was hoping to not have to completely re-install and setup for my needs. Jerry
