[CentOS] Security updates for CentOS-5
Hello, I was wondering why there haven't seemed to be any security updates for centos-5 since Jan 6. Per https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/rhel-server-errata.html there are a ton of outstanding issues. Thanks. -- Mark D. Foster m...@foster.cc http://mark.foster.cc/ ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

All of those apply to 5.6 ( where apply implies that they link into 5.6 code; which literally just got finalised in the last day or so ). Having said that, I've done a fair bit of work on the updates and hope to get them released into the 5.5/updates tree either later today or tomorrow. It might be a case of first hosting them into a testing repo, publicly so more people can confirm that deep linking and inherited issues are no longer a 'breaker'. But that testing will need to be fairly short and sweet, keep an eye on centos-devel for more info - KB ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

My solution at least for the kernel, was to get the src.rpm from RedHat ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Server/en/os/SRPMS/kernel-2.6.18-238.5.1.el5.src.rpm and build the kernel myself. CentOS staff is working now hard full time for 5.6 release, so since January there has not been any update.
