Hi list, Say a package has a dependency for libfoo.so.1, and 2 (or more) packages provide libfoo.so.1, how does yum decide which package to install to meet the dependency?

installer with centosplus kernel?
by Keith Keller 20 Jul '17

20 Jul '17

Hi all, Is there any way to get a CentOS 7 ISO with the centosplus kernel? I have some very old hardware I'd like to keep going if easy, but it has old NVidia network cards that need the forcedeth driver. Apparently this driver is now in the centosplus kernel, but if I use the default ISO I won't be able to get on the network to get the centosplus kernel. (Of course I can get the kernel to the machine in other ways, but over the network is by far the most convenient.) See https://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=7359 for more details. I've done other web searches but found nothing more specific than this link. Thanks! --keith -- kkeller(a)wombat.san-francisco.ca.us

Cron sending to root after changing MAILTO
by Chad Cordero 20 Jul '17

20 Jul '17

I am running CentOS 7 on an outbound gateway server running Postfix. I have a couple of cron jobs I was expecting to see in my email that never showed up. It turns out that they were delivered to root, which is restricted on our exchange server, instead of the address I defined. Please help. # cat /etc/crontab SHELL=/bin/bash PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin MAILTO=ecssupport(a)csusb.edu # For details see man 4 crontabs # Example of job definition: # .---------------- minute (0 - 59) # | .------------- hour (0 - 23) # | | .---------- day of month (1 - 31) # | | | .------- month (1 - 12) OR jan,feb,mar,apr ... # | | | | .---- day of week (0 - 6) (Sunday=0 or 7) OR sun,mon,tue,wed,thu,fri,sat # | | | | | # * * * * * user-name command to be executed # cat /etc/sysconfig/crond # Settings for the CRON daemon. # CRONDARGS= : any extra command-line startup arguments for crond CRONDARGS= --- Chad Cordero Information Technology Consultant Enterprise & Cloud Services Information Technology Services California State University, San Bernardino 5500 University Pkwy San Bernardino, CA 92407-2393 Main Line: 909/537-7677 Direct Line: 909/537-7281 Fax: 909/537-7141 http://support.csusb.edu/ --- Disclaimer: This e-mail message is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information protected from disclosure.

Thanks to every one

Thanks to all offers free service to provide Centos. Why? After I had the BIOS for the laptop T440 & docking station had I had immediately after the first installation works, without any failures. Since I know how hard such a work is, I thank everyone in the community to make that possible. Without a stable base I can not perform my Linux tests. Since I often have the time micht Rolling releases like ArchLinux or every half year, I know at the latest after a year, a Fedora update to perform is CentOS exactly the correct. I do not need the GUI support as in OpenSuSE, because who comes times from the shell knows what I mean. Most cluster nodes in my work are computing machines with an average run time of 220 days, usually over a year before they need a reboot. When I think about my virtual Windows 10, which every week requires a restart. I had already more than 30 distros active in my hands, but none read so easily. Of course you can always improve something here and there and yet it comes on a good basis. Furthermore, I find the handling of rpm easily understandable. Small supplement to my repo: - I provide the packages of my work - They are not signed because I do not see you directly as an additional repository for everyone, rather than as an exponential fundus. - Each external repostory changes the basic system. - new dependencies to the packages. - Users also indirectly depend on it. - Repositories in the past have already led to a new split of the basis. Best example: Debian -> Ubuntu -> Linux Mint. I don't like that point at all. - The holder is bound, in a certain way, to the care and demand of the Community. - I definitely miss the time. All in all ... thanks to everyone Andy

Today's Topics: 1. CentOS Atomic Host 7.1706 Released (Jason Brooks) 2. CESA-2017:1759 Important CentOS 6 freeradius Security Update (Johnny Hughes) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Tue, 18 Jul 2017 16:39:01 -0700 From: Jason Brooks <jbrooks(a)redhat.com> To: atomic-devel <atomic-devel(a)projectatomic.io>, atomic-announce(a)projectatomic.io, centos-announce(a)centos.org, "The CentOS developers mailing list." <centos-devel(a)centos.org> Subject: [CentOS-announce] CentOS Atomic Host 7.1706 Released Message-ID: <CAF=rfpCf=i8TZL5Kaf-UJVs5XUZ77Hhi9U6rfFitoJbYiff94g(a)mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" An updated version of CentOS Atomic Host (tree version 7.1706), is now available. [1] CentOS Atomic Host is a lean operating system designed to run Docker containers, built from standard CentOS 7 RPMs, and tracking the component versions included in Red Hat Enterprise Linux Atomic Host. [1] https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/Atomic/Download CentOS Atomic Host is available as a VirtualBox or libvirt-formatted Vagrant box, or as an installable ISO, qcow2 or Amazon Machine image. These images are available for download at cloud.centos.org. The backing ostree repo is published to mirror.centos.org. CentOS Atomic Host includes these core component versions: - atomic-1.17.2-9.git2760e30.el7.x86_64 - cloud-init-0.7.5-10.el7.centos.1.x86_64 - docker-1.12.6-32.git88a4867.el7.centos.x86_64 - etcd-3.1.9-1.el7.x86_64 - flannel-0.7.1-1.el7.x86_64 - kernel-3.10.0-514.26.2.el7.x86_64 - kubernetes-node-1.5.2-0.7.git269f928.el7.x86_64 - ostree-2017.5-3.el7.x86_64 - rpm-ostree-client-2017.5-1.atomic.el7.x86_64 Containerized kubernetes-master The downstream release of CentOS Atomic Host ships without the kubernetes-master package built into the image. Instead, you can run the master kubernetes components (apiserver, scheduler, and controller-manager) in containers, managed via systemd, using the service files and instructions on the CentOS wiki. The containers referenced in these systemd service files are built in and hosted from the CentOS Community Container Pipeline, based on Dockerfiles from the CentOS-Dockerfiles repository. These containers have been tested with the kubernetes ansible scripts provided in the upstream contrib repository, and they work as expected, provided you first copy the service files onto your master. Alternatively, you can install the kubernetes-master components using rpm-ostree package layering using the command: atomic host install kubernetes-master. Upgrading If you're running a previous version of CentOS Atomic Host, you can upgrade to the current image by running the following command: $ sudo atomic host upgrade Images Vagrant CentOS-Atomic-Host-7-Vagrant-Libvirt.box and CentOS-Atomic-Host-7-Vagrant-Virtualbox.box are Vagrant boxes for Libvirt and Virtualbox providers. The easiest way to consume these images is via the Atlas / Vagrant Cloud setup (see https://atlas.hashicorp.com/centos/boxes/atomic-host) For example, getting the VirtualBox instance up would involve running the following two commands on a machine with vagrant installed: $ vagrant init centos/atomic-host && vagrant up --provider virtualbox ISO The installer ISO can be used via regular install methods (PXE, CD, USB image, etc.) and uses the Anaconda installer to deliver the CentOS Atomic Host. This image allows users to control the install using kickstarts and to define custom storage, networking and user accounts. This is the recommended option for getting CentOS Atomic Host onto bare metal machines, or for generating your own image sets for custom environments. QCOW2 The CentOS-Atomic-Host-7-GenericCloud.qcow2 image is suitable for use in on-premise and local virtualized environments. We test this on OpenStack, AWS and local Libvirt installs. If your virtualization platform does not provide its own cloud-init metadata source, you can create your own NoCloud iso image.

After sources are released, they're rebuilt and included in new images. After the images are tested by the SIG and deemed ready, we announce them. Getting Involved CentOS Atomic Host is produced by the CentOS Atomic SIG, based on upstream work from Project Atomic. If you'd like to work on testing images, help with packaging, documentation -- join us! The SIG meets weekly on Thursdays at 16:00 UTC in the #centos-devel channel, and you'll often find us in #atomic and/or #centos-devel if you have questions.

Still fighting the IPv6 client dying...
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 19 Jul '17

19 Jul '17

Well, we're still fighting it, and one thing I've discovered that I find extremely odd: the IPv6 lease file. On my C7 workstation, if I grep -c lease6, I see 5 leases; on a C6 server, I see 9, and in the last few days, I saw my box - they mass restarted the IPv6 clients everywhere yesterday, because a good number of systems had lost the client. Can someone explain why there would be more than, say, 2 or 3 lease6's in the least file? mark

Installing support for Chinese text in Centos 7
by H 18 Jul '17

18 Jul '17

I have just done a minimal installation of Centos7 followed by X Windows and the Mate desktop on a workstation. Although the default language is English, I would like to be able to write Chinese text in various applications. I seem to remember this was very easy to do in Centos 6 and Gnome: possibly only requiring only a simple 'yum groupinstall "Chinese Support"' after which I could use iBus to switch between languages. This does not seem to work in Centos 7. Suggestions? Thank you.
