[CentOS] Thanks a lot for 8.3 Update

2020-12-07 Thread Thomas Stephen Lee
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.

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.

I suspect that not all mirrors are fully synced yet.  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
