CentOS 6 Comments

Just wanted to say “Thanks!” to the CentOS team for their efforts to put out a 7.1 release.

Upgraded several systems, so far smooth sailing. Good job!

  • so I updated my c7 dev systems last night with CR… do I need to do anything special to get it to clean update ? yum update isn’t offering me anything newer and CentOS-release still says its 1406

  • I like John updated with CR, but subsequent updates didn’t pull in the newer /etc/CentOS-release. Prior to a ‘yum clean all’ a ‘yum list updates’ as of ten minutes ago listed nothing; after doing a ‘yum clean all’ there were several updates, which I’m doing now.

    Of course, once I did the ‘yum clean all’ I lost the information on which mirrors I had been using; John may still have that information.

  • ‘probable’ is more likely than ‘possible’ :)

    now its updating.

    last night, on two different passes, it tried…

    * base: dallas.tx.mirror.xygenhosting.com
    * epel: linux.mirrors.es.net
    * extras: linux.mirrors.es.net
    * updates: dallas.tx.mirror.xygenhosting.com

    and

    * base: mirror.pac-12.org
    * epel: linux.mirrors.es.net
    * extras: linux.mirrors.es.net
    * updates: mirror.oss.ou.edu

    But, my real question was the part about whether I need to do anything after using CR to ‘undo’ that, and I guess the answer is, ‘no’. just now my system …

  • A ‘yum clean all’ made my systems work yesterday – probably just from picking a different mirror on the next run.
