Update centos-yumconf fixes security issue
by lance＠uklinux.net 03 Apr '04

03 Apr '04

An update has been released to centos-yumconf , the yum configuration file for centos because it was not set ot check the gpgkey on the packages ity installed. It was assumed that if there was a key then it would be checked, but that is not the case, it has to be explicitly enabled per repo. https://bugzilla.caosity.org/show_bug.cgi?id=543 refers The updated file is :- http://mirror.centos.org/centos-3/3.1/updates/i386/RPMS/centos-yumconf-1-7.… and should be on all mirrors within a few hours. If you run 'yum update' then the package will be automatically updated, however if you run yum against a local, non mirrored repository, or you have edited yum.conf then you may not pick up this update, in which case you should edit yum.conf to add gpgcheck=1 to each repo stanza.

updated perl rpms due to build problems
by lance＠uklinux.net 01 Apr '04

01 Apr '04

Due to a number of build problems with perl, we have issued a new set of rpms that no longer have strange provide/require items ... See https://bugzilla.caosity.org/show_bug.cgi?id=519 for details. The updated rpms are :- updates/i386/RPMS/perl-5.8.0-88.4.0.i386.rpm updates/i386/RPMS/perl-CGI-2.81-88.4.0.i386.rpm updates/i386/RPMS/perl-CPAN-1.61-88.4.0.i386.rpm updates/i386/RPMS/perl-DB_File-1.804-88.4.0.i386.rpm addons/i386/RPMS/perl-suidperl-5.8.0-88.4.0.i386.rpm updates/i386/SRPMS/perl-5.8.0-88.4.0.src.rpm To update to this new version 'yum update perl' should be sufficient. These new rpms will be rolled in to a new set of iso images once a bit more time has been allowed to see if any other bugs surface.

by lance＠uklinux.net 19 Mar '04

19 Mar '04

Thanks to all who have tested - CentOS 3.1 has now been released. .... The release includes all security updates for rhel released by 18th March. For now further security announcements will be posted to both the centos(a)caosity.org and centos-devel(a)caosity.org mailing lists. .... CentOS-3 also now includes the rhel documentation, both on the cds (cd3 /docs) and also on the mirrors in the 3.1/docs/ directory. .... There were some problems with build 8 that mean that you will need to run a script to update to 3.1 - see http://mirror.centos.org/centos/upgrading-to-3.1.txt for details. .... All rpms in 3.1 are now signed with the CentOS-3 gpg key , as is the list of md5sums on the server. .... A bittorrent is available to download a dvd iso image :- http://mirror.centos.org/centos/3.1/isos/Centos-3.1-i386.dvd.iso.torrent This may be slow initially, but as more people use it then it will speed up. Bittorrent rpms are available in the testing repo of builds 7,8 and 3.1 . .... Please bugzilla any issues at https://bugzilla.caosity.org Lance -- uklinux.net - The ISP of choice for the discerning Linux user.

Cannot install
by syv 13 Mar '04

13 Mar '04

Hi, Beta 8, selected server & developer. The installation goes into a loop on disk 2, with the error, that it cannot read zlib-devel... claiming that either the file is corrupted or the drive is not working. The disk is OK: md5 ok The file is OK, I can open it on the same machine in Windows and see the files within the rpm. Any suggestion? -- Thanks syv(a)911networks.com

build7 isos dont fit on a normal 650M CD-R
by Müller Miklós 08 Mar '04

08 Mar '04

The build7 isos (at least disk1 and disk2) dont fit on a normal 650M CD-R. There was a silent update of the isos on the 28th of february which inlcuded moving some development packages from disk3 to disk1 and disk2. What is the rationale behind this reorganization? How does this affect the installation? BTW moving kernel-unsupported and kernel-source to disk1 would also be something to consider if the reorganization does not effect the distribution otherwise.
