[CentOS] Thanks a lot for 8.3 Update
Hi, Thanks a lot for the 8.3 update.😊 I would like to point out one thing I faced. I downloaded the iso from one mirror. After installing, I installed a package (rsync). Then some packages, including dnf, got downgraded to 8.2. Just a test server, not production. Thanks. --- Lee ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
Re: [CentOS] Thanks a lot for 8.3 Update
very odd, DNF/YUM should *never* downgrade a package.its possible the mirror it chose to use was lagging on replication and didn' thave the 8.3 latest packages yet (this is a regular issue with the centos mirrors)., but really it should have errored rather than downgrading.

My local mirror (which I sync from an institutional mirror) still has the default 8 version pointing to 8.2.2004 not 8.3.2011 P. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Create a file .my.cnf owned by root with permission 600, containing these lines: [mysqladmin] user = root password = YourMySqlRootPassword You need to put it in / or in /root - I usually do both, as I think logrotate has / as it's home dir instead of /root. Then logrotate can call mysqladmin without having to give a password.

[CentOS] CentOS-8(2011): osbuild - missing selinux subpackage?
Briefly, while updating some workstation I came across this. The update to CentOS-8(2011) passes without issues (because best=False). So, I guess that all packages landed at the mirror host - but osbuild-selinux is missing? # LANG=C yum update Last metadata expiration check: 0:00:39 ago on Tue Dec 8 01:18:19 2020. Dependencies resolved. Problem: package osbuild-18-3.el8.noarch requires (osbuild-selinux if selinux-policy-targeted), but none of the providers can be installed - package osbuild-composer-20.1-1.el8.x86_64 requires osbuild >= 18, but none of the providers can be installed - cannot install the best update candidate for package selinux-policy-targeted-3.14.3-54.el8.noarch - cannot install the best update candidate for package lorax-composer-28.14.55-2.el8.x86_64 = PackageArchitecture Version Repository Size = Skipping packages with broken dependencies: osbuildnoarch 18-3.el8 appstream 53 k osbuild-composer x86_64 20.1-1.el8appstream 2.8 M Transaction Summary = Skip 2 Packages Nothing to do.
