SRPMS are signed which allows the integrity of the contents to be checked. Such an integrity check is missing from the git repo. Either a checksum

Hi, I woke up Saturday morning unable to boot my freshly upgraded 5.6 with grub hanging at "GRUB". After getting the boot loader fixed I experienced crashes in evolution. Downgrading glibc to 2.5-58 seems to fix these issues. Anyone else seeing this? Leonard. -- mount -t life -o ro /dev/dna /genetic/research

Hi, Updating selinux-policy-targeted to 3.7.19-260 fails. The archive seems corrupt. Got another copy from http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/os/x86_64/Packages/ which also fails: # rpm -Fv selinux-policy-targeted-3.7.19-260.el6.noarch.rpm Preparing packages for installation... selinux-policy-targeted-3.7.19-260.el6 warning: /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/customizable_types saved as

Hi, Anyone else seeing this? C7 Gnome Desktop, opened a gnome-terminal, click File -> New Profile and gnome-terminal-server gets killed. Regards, Leonard. -- mount -t life -o ro /dev/dna /genetic/research

Hi, Reading http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=30939&forum=37 I noticed a warning about an upcoming bugged update xorg-x11-server-utils-7.1-5.el5_6.1 I would advise everyone to add exclude=xorg-x11-server-utils-7.1-5.el5_6.1 to their updates repo config.

Hello, The latest update to sudo (sudo-1.7.2p1-14.el5_8.2) breaks postgresql. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=846631 It might break other services that rely on access to /etc/nsswitch.conf too. Assuming you have a "sudoers" line in /etc/nsswitch.conf that file will be recreated with incorrect file permissions. After having had issues with selinux permissions on that

Hi, Just noticed that the distro tag used in openssl is different from upstream. Upstream and the last update (openssl-1.0.1e-30.el6_6.7) use "el6_6" where as the latest update (openssl-1.0.1e-30.el6.8) uses "el_6". Any reason for this discrepancy?
