 Anyone packaging the new kernel for RH / CentOS?

You need a new version of module-init-tools that is compatible with 
Linux 3.x series.
See: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=245705

 - Fix handling of Linux 3.x series kernels

Therefore, Linux 3.0 will not work on CentOS 6.

Re: [CentOS] OT: RHEL 6.1 is out

2011/5/23 Johnny Hughes joh...@centos.org:
 I have said this a million times ... but you are flat out wrong.

 The community does many, many things for CentOS.

 It is the community that makes the CentOS Fora one of the best place to
 get information.

 The community does all the articles on the CentOS Wiki.

 It is the Community that answers questions on bugs.centos.org

 It is the community that does the graphics for CentOS.

 It is the community that is currently doing the website redesign.

 It is the community that is on the QA team, testing before release.

 It is the community that provides all the technical support.

 We never said, anywhere, that the community would build the packages,
 nor did we say we would teach people how to make the distribution ...

Hi Johnny,

I think the problem is the long waiting time.

For example:

CentOS 4.0 = 23 days after RHEL 4.0
CentOS 5.0 = 28 days after RHEL 5.0
CentOS 6.0 = 192 days +
CentOS 6.1 = ???

The next problem: After the release of CentOS 6.0, there are no current (6.1) 
security updates for CentOS 6.0.

How about a fundamental change? A completely open development process like at 
Fedora?

CentOS is a great operating system. But many people have lost confidence in 
CentOS. ... No security updates for months and very long release cycles.

Re: [CentOS] Any update on 5.6 / 6?

2011-02-16 Thread Morten P.D. Stevens
2011/2/16 David Sommerseth d...@users.sourceforge.net:

 That Red Hat keeps their work schedule private is not directly comparable
 to a CentOS community effort, how I see it.

 Red Hat is also a big financial organisation, which CentOS is not.  In that
 context, Red Hat is much more responsible for stock holders, informing the
 stock market on economical issues.  And market speculations needs to be
 controlled much more differently.  It will be market speculations, like it
 or not, no matter what, all which most often are related to product
 releases.  In addition, Red Hat also are responsible for customer and
 partner agreements, certification training, etc, etc.

 It's a big machinery, which is tightly connected to the Open Source work
 Red Hat does.  And revealing some of the Open Source process might reveal
 other things indirectly, which makes the market speculate more wildly.

 CentOS does not need to be responsible for a board of stock holders (or
 what the proper term is), partners, (paying) customers, training
 organisations, etc, etc.  In such regard, CentOS is quite more lucky - it
 can focus primarily on the Open Source part.

 Red Hat does also much more than just pulling the pieces together to form
 the RHEL distribution.  These pieces are improved continuously to make them
 work well in the big distribution perspective, as well making sure it is
 tested on a vast variety of certified hardware [1].

 CentOS basically takes the core result of all those processes and the
 labour Red Hat has put into RHEL, strips out/replaces the trademarks with
 CentOS replacements, recompiles everything and have a release ready.

 Hence, the CentOS process should, in theory at least, be a lot easier than
 the RHEL process - the majority of the hard work is already done when
 Red Hat delivers an installable RHEL distribution.  Given that CentOS can
 focus primarily on the Open Source part, it should also be able to be more
 transparent on its process.

Hi David,

You're absolutely right.

The best example is Scientific Linux. There are schedules and an open 
development process.

What is the reason for the closed development process in CentOS?

 Its funny you say that Morten, since you actually offered to help. Didnt
 you ? But then when I asked you to look at something specific, you
 backed off saying you had other things to do ( I remember being quite
 taken aback by your response at the time ).

 Why you dont you just stick to lurking, since you clearly dont actually
 want to do anything to help - just get in the way and try to make a lot
 of noise you dont either understand or want to put any effort into
 understanding.

 Would you call that a fair take on the state of your envolvement Morten ?

Karanbir, this is not quite right. And you know it. 
I offered my help for testing. (qa process)

You have offered me to help with packages that need upstream branding removed. 
This is very difficult to realize when the primary mailing list (centos-qa) is 
completely closed to outsiders.

Many people (including me) would like to CentOS help if the development process 
would be more open.

I think you are doing a great job with CentOS! And for that you have my full 
appreciation.

 Hi,
 Despite the mailing list and twitter I did not find any updated info on
 either versions regarding the current status.
 So, what is the current status of both versions? (like 60%)

I wonder for a long time why there is no detailed information about the release 
status.

For example:

1) Upstream 5.6 release
2) rebuilding packages (2-3 days)
3) CentOS patches (1-7 days)
4) QA (2-3 weeks)
5) distribution on the mirrors (3-4 days)
6) CentOS 5.6 Release

A small roadmap would certainly help many users.

 Having done several upgrades from CentOS 4 to CentOS 5, my recommendation
 would be to not even try it. There is all kinds of ugliness left over that

 doing a clean install.

That's the point.

The cost to upgrade is probably higher than a clean installation.

It has changed so much between RHEL5 and RHEL6.

I recommend everyone a clean installation.

The official Redhat mirror is very slow at the moment.

Here is a faster mirror from my company for the x86-64 version:

Re: [CentOS] downgrade

 Can i downgrade from centos 5.5 to 5.0

This is a big security risk because the CentOS team is only supporting the 
latest CentOS version. (5.5, 4.8 and so on)

 Yes, you see you have Perl 64-bit and 32-bit installed. You really need
 it as an i386 package?
 
 I have no problem updating x86_64 packages only.

Hi Alexander,

thank you. I removed perl.i386 and the yum update process is now working 
perfectly :)
