[CentOS] Today's firefox update
Johnny's announcement refers to: firefox-45.2.0-1.el5.centos.src.rpm firefox-45.2.0-1.el6.centos.src.rpm firefox-45.2.0-1.el7.centos.src.rpm The linked rhel webpage refers to: firefox-45.2.0-1.el5_11.src.rpm firefox-45.2.0-1.el6_8.src.rpm firefox-45.2.0-1.el7_2.src.rpm These do not appear to be the same thing. Note the numbers just before the .src part of the filenames. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Checking the changelog should confirm they are the same. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

But we already had a firefox-45.2.0-1 rpm issued a week back: $ rpm -qi firefox Name: firefox Version : 45.2.0 Release : 1.el7.centos Architecture: x86_64 Install Date: Wed 08 Jun 2016 08:26:44 PM CST Group : Applications/Internet Size: 149250172 License : MPLv1.1 or GPLv2+ or LGPLv2+ Signature : RSA/SHA256, Wed 08 Jun 2016 05:19:42 PM CST, Key ID 24c6a8a7f4a80eb5 Source RPM : firefox-45.2.0-1.el7.centos.src.rpm Therefore, yum won't find this latest update (as far as I can tell, anyway). -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

The actual RPMs where released last week when they were built. (The announcements were delayed). When the CentOS team changes a package for debranding, except the kernel which has to have the exact same name for 3rd Party Modules or Drivers, we change the dist tag to .el7.centos (or .el6.centos or .el5.centos). We do this to denote that the package has been modified. We only modify packages in the BASE operating system for debranding to meet the redistribution requirements of Red Hat Software (Specifically, see the Trademark information here): https://www.redhat.com/f/pdf/corp/trademark1.pdf Thanks, Johnny Hughes signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
