我理想中的Almalinux10，在安装时，像debian那样提供多个图形界面选择，在一个iso文件中包含多个桌面环境，而不是对每个桌面环境提供一个iso文件。并且AlmaLinux10中使用dnf5. 蓝天白云 592453120(a)qq.com

Kernel Rebuild on Alma 9.4 for PXE Install on XEN domU PVH
by michael theurl 19 Feb '25

19 Feb '25

Hello List, i am working to enable the XEN PVH Feature on the stock Alma Linux 9.4 kernel for the PXE Boot image set. I was able to rebuild the kernel with rpm -ivh kernel-5.14.0-427.13.1.el9_4.src.rpm modified the kernel-x86_64-rhel.config from SOURCES <SNIP> CONFIG_XEN_PVH=y # CONFIG_XEN_DOM0 is not set <SNAP> rpmbuild -bb --target=x86_64 kernel.spec and after some time i got the needed rpms. To extract the parts who iam looking for. It does now boot proper as a XEN PVH domU but then the dracut exits because he can not load the kernel modules. So the stock kernel modules from initrd.img from the pxe boot will give me an error: BPF can not load modules and dracut exits. It Seem they are all signed (I am from the time who used Centos 5/6 for a lot of time and did back in time all the compiling and just copy the files in place pretty straight forward, seems things has changed a lot). If i extract the pxe initrd.img file and replace there the kernel modules to the newly compiled it works again. Everything was looking pretty good so far. But... And after i run successfully through the anaconda installer and the installers starts the tasks. Suddenly the installer crashes. it is after The mounting of the filesystem would begin. it fails because the install.img has the old set of kernel modules and the installer exits. He tried to load the xfs kernel module. So again lets change the kernel module but after the change the install.img seems broken. Dracut tells me the rootfs.img is missing. But it is there. Then i gave up and was thinking there must be an other way. I did an unsquashfs install.img mount -o loop rootfs.img /PATH copied the kernel modules unmount /PATH mksquashfs /PATH install.img Is this the only way to make this change happen ? Or is there a much easier way that i could recompile the kernel and still can use all the existing kernel modules ? So that i do not search and replace them in all the files ? If someone could give me some hints that would be amazing. many thanks cheers Michael

 希望在almalinux10中提供dnf5，因为dnf5实在是比dnf4好用很多。蓝天白云 592453120(a)qq.com

Security Patches
by dervish13＠tilda.center 10 Jun '24

10 Jun '24

Greetings, Is there a guide on how to publish security patches for packages? Or example of working code I can learn from is also useful. I have rpm repo using createrepo, and tried updating the security info with modifyrepo and updateinfo.xml but dnf --refresh update --security never picks it up. Thanks, Dervish

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]
