 about a buggy kernel one would expect the newest kernel to be eagerly awaited.

The key word is awaited. I suspect the real life has intervened to
slow the completion steps need to release these updates. Sans security
issues, real life could be expected to have priority. However, not being
a team member, I'm only speculating here.

[CentOS] New CentOS 4 Kernels cannot be seen by yum

2008-10-11 Thread Spike Turner
I don't know if those are new kernels in

- http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/updates/i386/RPMS/?C=M;O=D

but as yum cannot see them is it because the headers are not updated?

- http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/updates/i386/headers/?C=M;O=D

The ones dated 10/8 are new. My up-to-date 4.7 still has the ...1.EL
kernel build.
