All,

Given that Foreman has officially dropped EL6 support for 1.13, we are
providing a set of EL6 builds for existing Foreman users as well as Katello
users who may not have been aware of the impending support drop. The builds
are being hosted with Katello's repositories and are signed by the Katello
GPG key. This includes an EL6 plugins repository as well (although, like
usual, they are not signed).

We will be working to ensure that for each Foreman z-stream release, we
will rebuild the EL6 repositories with the updates and provide them within
a few days of the official Foreman release.

Known Issues:

Base Foreman installation will fail with a TFTP error that will ideally be
fixed by having [1] included in Foreman 1.13.1.

We do not plan to build and support Foreman 1.14 and beyond on EL6 which
also means Katello will be moving off EL6 then as well. So please consider
planning a migration strategy to continue getting updates if you are on
EL6. The Katello team will be working to build out a migration path and
strategy to ensure there is a supported path to go from EL6 to El7. If you
have questions or concerns please reach out to us so we can help with this
effort.

For Katello 3.2 RC users, expect an EL6 Katello build to follow in the next
few days.


Thanks,
Eric
