Hi,


Hello all,

last Friday (Oct 15) I encountered a weird issue relating to the
libxml2* packages.

I have a script which monitors the CentOS mirrors to find new packages.
On Friday, these showed up:

libxml2-2.9.1-6.el7.5.i686.rpm
libxml2-2.9.1-6.el7.5.x86_64.rpm
libxml2-devel-2.9.1-6.el7.5.i686.rpm
libxml2-devel-2.9.1-6.el7.5.x86_64.rpm
libxml2-python-2.9.1-6.el7.5.x86_64.rpm
libxml2-static-2.9.1-6.el7.5.i686.rpm
libxml2-static-2.9.1-6.el7.5.x86_64.rpm

However, looking at Scientific Linux
(https://scientificlinux.org/category/sl-errata/slsa-20213810-1/)
and Red Hat Errata (https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2021:3810) it
seems that CentOS is one release
behind (el7.5 from CentOS vs. el7.6 for SL and RHEL).



Yes, it seems the newest package has not been built from current GIT.

What's also strange is that I see libxml2 two times, in
centos/7.9.2009/updates/x86_64/Packages/ and in
centos/7.9.2009/os/x86_64/Packages/. Both with identical version but
_different_ builds.

Maybe some automated thing which went wrong?



Thanks for the report, this was fixed on 10/21

[CentOS] libxml2 update/packaging issues?

2021-10-20 Thread Steve Meier 

Hello all,

last Friday (Oct 15) I encountered a weird issue relating to the 
libxml2* packages.


I have a script which monitors the CentOS mirrors to find new packages. 
On Friday, these showed up:


libxml2-2.9.1-6.el7.5.i686.rpm
libxml2-2.9.1-6.el7.5.x86_64.rpm
libxml2-devel-2.9.1-6.el7.5.i686.rpm
libxml2-devel-2.9.1-6.el7.5.x86_64.rpm
libxml2-python-2.9.1-6.el7.5.x86_64.rpm
libxml2-static-2.9.1-6.el7.5.i686.rpm
libxml2-static-2.9.1-6.el7.5.x86_64.rpm

However, looking at Scientific Linux 
(https://scientificlinux.org/category/sl-errata/slsa-20213810-1/)
and Red Hat Errata (https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2021:3810) it 
seems that CentOS is one release

behind (el7.5 from CentOS vs. el7.6 for SL and RHEL).

Looking at my systems which have libxml2 packages installed, it gets 
even weirder:


$ rpm -q --queryformat 
'%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}\t%{BUILDTIME}\t%{INSTALLTIME}\n' libxml2

2.9.1-6.el7.5   1601484919  1605352337

My system already has this exact release.

$ rpm -qi libxml2
Name: libxml2
Version : 2.9.1
Release : 6.el7.5
Architecture: x86_64
Install Date: Sa 14 Nov 2020 12:12:17 CET
Signature   : RSA/SHA256, Mi 14 Okt 2020 20:55:29 CEST, Key ID 
24c6a8a7f4a80eb5

Source RPM  : libxml2-2.9.1-6.el7.5.src.rpm
Build Date  : Mi 30 Sep 2020 18:55:19 CEST

The version which is now on the mirrors has a newer build date (Oct 14, 
2021):


$ rpm -qp --queryformat 
'%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}\t%{BUILDTIME}\t%{INSTALLTIME}\n' 
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/updates/x86_64/Packages/libxml2-2.9.1-6.el7.5.x86_64.rpm

2.9.1-6.el7.5   1634214499  (none)

But its latest changelog entry does not match the latest changelog entry 
in the CentOS Git here:

https://git.centos.org/rpms/libxml2/c/7219ebb7c53b80409f3f8fa3433d3ecf35665f84?branch=c7

So, to make a long story short: I believe there should be a el7.6 
version of the libxml2* packages

but instead we somehow have a repackaged el7.5 which is not up-to-date.

Kind regards,
  Steve
