Maintenance of hpsa and qla2xxx
by Rainer Jung 27 Mar '24

27 Mar '24

Hi there, Thanks for your great work on Alma. I saw that Alma patched away the deprecation resp. unmaintained warnings for hpsa and qla2xxx (and others) for the forthcoming 8.10 and 9.4 as a result of the recent Hackathon in Rust. I wonder what it means in terms of ongoing maintenance for those drivers. Are they still maintained upstreams and will Alma pick up upstream changes even if RHEL drops them? Otherwise simply patching away the warnings might be misleading. Thanks and regards, Rainer

[PATCH] AlmaLinux 8: cronie 1.5.2-1.5.4 100% CPU usage bug
by Alexander Gerasimov 27 Feb '24

27 Feb '24

Hi All, We areusing AlmaLinux 8 docker image for docker-compose and one of the services is cron (using cronie). We faced 100% CPU load issue. The problem is described here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1723106 I see there is a patch (fixed in 1.5.5). Patch: https://github.com/cronie-crond/cronie/commit/584911514ce6aa2f16e1d79431bac… Also we found that cronie 1.5.2-10 is used in CentOS 8 Stream, probably with similar patch (didn't found the way to get src rpm), but still 1.5.2-8 in AlmaLinux. Thus, I backported the patch and ask to include it or fix using Centos stream one. Fixed src rpm: https://repo.codeit.guru/packages/unsigned/cronie-1.5.2-9.codeit.el8.src.rpm (see patch10 in spec). Can you review this or point me where to send it? Thanks. Best regards, Alexander Gerasimov Chief Technical Officer CodeIT

Rebuilding the Almalinux leapp-upgrade-el7toel8-rpms
by Darrious 14 Sep '23

14 Sep '23

I would like to fork the almalinux/leapp-repositories repo, make some tweaks, rebuild the RPMs, and install them along side the leapp dependencies in the Almalinux elevate repo at http://repo.almalinux.org/elevate/elevate-release-latest-el7.noarch.rpm I understand how to rebuild the RPM. The problem I am running into is related to versioning. The yum repository I mentioned says that the leapp-upgrade-el7toel8-* rpm major versions are 0.16.0. I noticed also that there are a few of these RPMs in there with build numbers appended to the end (see attached image). The almalinux/leapp-repositories git repository does contain a v0.16.0 tag but that tag is on a commit from over a year ago and I see that the v.0.16.0 RPMs in the yum repository are receiving regular updates with these build numbers (one was uploaded this week). The RPM produced from the v0.16.0 tag locally does not work with the other dependencies in the yum repo although I am able to get it to work when I rebuild all of the leapp RPMs (which I want to avoid). I would like to understand how to build the newer v0.16.0 RPM with the updated build numbers present in the yum repos. I don't see any tagging or branches in the github repositories for these [image: image.png]

Fwd: [orca] AlmaLinux 9.1 released

---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Jude DaShiell <jdashiel(a)panix.com> Date: Sat, Nov 19, 2022 at 7:15 AM Subject: [orca] AlmaLinux 9.1 released To: <orca(a)freelists.org> For us screen reader users, you want the dvd images since these are the only ones with the accessibility stack immediately available. This after a bittorrent download turned out to be quick research since .manifest files for all three flavors of almalinux came as a result of the bittorrent download.

Can I use the Elevate tool to migrate my CentOS 7.9 with Virtualmin/Webmin to AlmaLinux 9.0?
by Turritopsis Dohrnii Teo En Ming 16 Nov '22

16 Nov '22

Subject: Can I use the Elevate tool to migrate my CentOS 7.9 with Virtualmin/Webmin to AlmaLinux 9.0? Good day from Singapore, I understand both CentOS Linux and AlmaLinux follow Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). I have 2 CentOS 7.9 Linux virtual private servers (VPS) in Europe. They are running Virtualmin/Webmin web hosting control panel in master and slave configuration. Unfortunately, the end of life (EOL) date for CentOS 7.9 is 30 June 2024, which is less than 2 years away. Can I use the Elevate tool to migrate my CentOS 7.9 with Virtualmin/Webmin to AlmaLinux 9.0? Is it technically impossible or will result in too many complications? Should I install AlmaLinux 9.0 from fresh and then install Virtualmin instead? If I choose this route, I will need to ask Virtualmin developers how I can migrate the web hosting control panel from CentOS 7.9 to AlmaLinux 9.0. Please advise. Thank you.
