RPM creation problem
by Alessandro Baggi 25 Jul '24

25 Jul '24

Hi list, I'm creating an RPM package for gocryptfs on AlmaLinux 9.3 I'm using the source with deps (vendoring) because deps are too much. During the process rpmbuild returns: gocryptfs-debugsource-2.4.0-1.el9.x86_64 error: Empty %files file /root/rpmbuild/BUILD/gocryptfs_v2.4.0_src-deps/debugsourcefiles.list To avoid this I can add: %global debug_package %{nil} and the problem is solved also if the build-id links are generated. But, here there is a problem. I read that for $arch packages a debug package will be created and if some error is reported there is something wrong on the SPEC file. Why debugsourcefiles.list is empty? What is causing this? Thank you in advance. Alessandro.

there is a strange delay in my work on the Almalinux forum - what should I do?
by Mikhail Kuzminsky 02 Jul '24

I registered on the forum yesterday and sent a message. Today I go to the forum (general) - my message has not appeared yet. And I cannot answer to the message (from another forum user) about a problem: I don't see any answer icon. My username on the forum is mbkus (with my other e-mail). I don't see any way to contact the forum manager. Mikhail

OpenSSH policies / system crypto policy equivalence
by Francesco Di Nucci 20 Jun '24

20 Jun '24

Hello, I am trying to write a crypto policy modifier to disable some kex algorithms in OpenSSH (not the one in the example, but the issue is the same). Reading //usr/share/crypto-policies/python/policygenerators/openssh.py/, I find mappings like /'ECDHE-SECP521R1-SHA2-512': 'ecdh-sha2-nistp521'/, so I tried to write in a pmod /key_exchange = -ECDHE-SECP521R1-SHA2-512/ When I try to load it with update-crypto-policies, it fails stating /Bad value of policy property `key_exchange`: `ECDHE-SECP521R1-SHA2-512`/, and in fact If I check //usr/share/crypto-policies/python/cryptopolicies/alg_lists.py, /ECDHE-SECP521R1-SHA2-512 is not defined there. So, how can I disable in OpenSSH kex/algorithms/etc that are defined in //usr/share/crypto-policies/python/policygenerators/openssh.py /but not in //usr/share/crypto-policies/python/cryptopolicies/alg_lists.py?/ Best regards Francesco Di Nucci

Nftables breaks ...
by Werf, C.G. van der (Carel) 16 May '24

16 May '24

LS Updating AlmaLinux 9.3 to 9.4, the package Nftables seems to get upgraded from 1.0.4 to 1.0.9.1 And after the upgrade, netfilter completely blocks any in- and outbound network traffic. Removing version 1.0.9 and reinstalling the Alma9.3-baseos-package nftables-1.0.4 fixes the problem. Could it be that some of the nft-kernel modules aren't loaded by the package ? Anyone any idea ? Regards, Carel

pdfjam?
by Morgan Read 10 May '24

Folks, Can` anyone point me in the direction of `pdfjam`? It seems part of `texlive` but doesn't get installed with it. It seems to be provided in the fedora build system for EL: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/rpminfo?rpmID=34352082 https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=26454 I'm a bit stumped with what to install for it. Thanks -- Morgan Read Grande Bretagne Em: <email:mstuffATreadDOTorgDOTnz>

Almalinux and integritysetup speed problem
by Alessandro Baggi 10 Apr '24

10 Apr '24

Hi list, I'm trying on a spare machine dm-integrity with mdadm raid1. This is an old machine (i7-2600k). I'm using 2x500GB wd caviar black SATA3. I'm trying to run some test and see how much performance changes using dm-integrity. First I created a raid1 with mdadm and checked the performances and writing 50G I got 100 MB/s Then I destroied the md device and on every disk I run: # integritysetup format --integrity xxhash64 /dev/sdb1 # integritysetup format --integrity xxhash64 /dev/sdc1 During this process the performances was good ~95MB/s. After this I opened the devices with: # integritysetup open integrity xxhash64 /dev/sdb1 sdb1 # integritysetup open integrity xxhash64 /dev/sdc1 sdc1 and created the mdadm array with: # mdadm --create /dev/md10 --level=raid1 --raid-devices=2 /dev/mapper/sdb1 /dev/mapper/sdc1 and reading on /proc/mdstat I got this: [>....................] resync = 1.1% (4929792/443175424) finish=677.3min speed=10782K/sec Why there is so big drop on speed during the sync? I'm missing something? I'll need 11 hours to sync 2x500GB hdd? Why so slow? Before this I tried the same on a newer machine with i7 8700k and 2x2TB WD gold and I get a drop sync speed at ~35MB/s. There is something that I can do to improve this? Thank you in advance. Alessandro.

AlmaLinux Appstream
by Alessandro Baggi 09 Apr '24

09 Apr '24

Hi list, I've noticed that RHEL has several type of appstream: RHEL 9 Application Streams Release Life Cycle RHEL 9 Full Life Application Streams Release Life Cycle RHEL 9 Rolling Application Streams Release Life Cycle from here: https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/rhel-app-streams-life-cycl… I noticed that in application streams there less software that in AlmaLinux appstream. Why? They are RHEL binded packages (licenses etc...)? I noticed also that there is a rolling appstream which includes firefox 102 and other app. Is that rolling appstream available for AlmaLinux? Thank you in advance
