[CentOS] last update yum and kernel Problem

2017-03-04 Thread Günther J . Niederwimmer
Hello,

the last update brings much Problems ?

On my System the most KVM client have a crashed yum 

after reboot the new kernel is broken and have a panic screen

I have to reboot to a older kernel ?

The first I have to run
yum-complete-transaction

afterward i have to reinstall the kernel ??

this helps to restart the KVM Client !

is it possible the deltarpm is broken ?

Also RPM or "yum check" have a problem with the new update for ipa-*
I mean the problem is the naming

4.4.0-14.el7.centos.6

I had a similar issue. On one of my vms. My host rebooted while the vm was
running its update. I had to remove the kernel then reinstall and it
corrected the issue.

Re: [CentOS] New C7 kernel ABI and kmods

All,

This is just a heads-up that the new C7 update kernel breaks ABI
compatibility, at least as far as using the ELrepo nVidia drivers is
concerned.  I have posted more details to the ELrepo list; but since many
folks use the Elrepo kmods I thought a heads-up would be appropriate.

If you use the ELrepo nvidia kmod you will either need to hold off on the
kernel update or uninstall the nvidia kmod.


This is being tracked here:

https://elrepo.org/bugs/view.php?id=720


didn't we just go thru this a few months ago? they're breaking it again?




It's not uncommon for bits (non kABI whitelisted bits) of the kernel ABI 
to change at point releases, but in my experience it's very uncommon for 
the ABI to change within a point release series. To the best of my 
knowledge I recall it happening twice before on the EL6 kernel, once 
such example was here:


http://elrepo.org/bugs/view.php?id=406

Of course any kABI changes will only affect 3rd party kernel modules 
using those specific ABIs so the vast majority of users will be 
oblivious to the changes. It just so happens in this case it affected 
the 3rd party nvidia drivers which are widely used.

The CentOS-7-x86_64-Everything.iso (without a version) is a symlink to
the 'lastest' Everything iso.  If you look at the sha256sum file, the
last Everything file listed will be the version you use.

Currently that would be:

1c1983b5bd1b5db281ee0b706c8c09f57f107a89a9d8418f60b384ef2b30b8a8

Good info; thanks again...  but shouldn't the date code in the column
labeled "Minor release" now say (1702) instead of (1611) ?

[CentOS] Python search path

2017-03-04 Thread Alice Wonder

Hello,

Working on a project to create clean spec files for libbitcoin for 
CentOS 7 (and eventually I want them to work in Fedora 25+ too)


These spec files must work with the user defines an alternate %{_prefix} 
before building them.


This means that python components would be installed in /opt/libbitcoin 
(or whatever) instead of in /usr so %{python2_sitelib} and 
%{python2_sitearch} no longer would apply.


sys.path.append looks like the way to tell python about a new path to 
look for stuff, but I'm guessing there are guidelines somewhere for how 
that is suppose to properly done from within spec files.


Unfortunately I can't find them, and search engines are getting harder 
and harder to use to find technical related information, always changing 
my query and showing me completely unrelated results.


Anyway I didn't see anything in the Fedora packaging guidelines for 
python, that seems to be targeting a prefix of /usr


Thanks for any links or suggestions.

So you want to build something independent of the system python? Is
virtualenv and / or anaconda interesting here?

Re: [CentOS] Python search path

2017-03-04 Thread Alice Wonder
I want to create RPM spec file that lets the user build the RPM with an 
alternate prefix - e.g.


rpmbuild -D '_prefix /opt/whatever' -bb package.spec

That results in in the python files being placed in

/opt/whatever/lib/pythonN/site-packages and
/opt/whatever/%{_lib}/pythonN/site-packages

Those directories are outside of the default python search path.

I could leave it up to the user to add them, but its nice when 
installing a package just works (hence why we can put files in 
/etc/ld.so.conf.d for example) without the user needing to fuss too much.


When the user builds with a different prefix, there likely will be 
several different packages that put python stuff in that prefix, so a 
meta package they require that adds to the search path is what I am 
thinking, that both adds to the python when installed and removes it 
from the python search path when removed.

Re: [CentOS] Python search path

Found solution, it was rather easy - just put a .pth in the "official" 
site-packages containing the full path to the directory being added.
