Terabithia EL9 RPMs moving from /testing/ to production soon
list Japheth Cleaver
Hello all, The 4.3.30-1 RPMs available at https://terabithia.org/rpms/xymon/testing/el9/x86_64/ were built quite some time ago, but have stayed in /testing/. As I'm unaware of any bug reports relating to them, I'll be moving them to the production RPM repo https://terabithia.org/rpms/xymon/el9/x86_64/ Friday morning. I believe this should be invisible for current users, but it's worth a pre-notification since it's been so long. If you have a need for EL9 packages and haven't used them before, I'd appreciate it if you could run them from /testing/ ASAP. I'll post another update once it's completed. I'll also be compiling packages for current Fedora releases, assuming no build delays or fun compiler situations beyond the current ones. I'll post an update when those are complete as well. Regards, -jc

Hello, Fedora 36, 37, and 38 are now available in their respective testing repositories at https://terabithia.org/rpms/xymon/testing/ Upon reflection, pushing anything to an EL repo on a Friday seemed like a bad idea :) so I'll be bumping the production updates for EL9 (and Fedora) to Tuesday 8/22. Regards, -jc

Thank you J.C, A? question: - Is the source form terabithia the same as the one is sourceforge? - Can we see somewhere what differ (the sources of therabitiha if they differ or whatever that differ)? Regards Bruno

The root source of the RPMs is the same 4.3.30 tarball as released on Sourceforge, however there are a *large* number of patches and build/install location tweaks throughout in the Terabithia RPMs. The best documentation for it is the xymon.spec file itself (or the SRPM), however these two files cover the user-level changes and the changes at the packaging level: https://terabithia.org/rpms/xymon/xymon.README.terabithia https://terabithia.org/rpms/xymon/xymon.CHANGES.terabithia The *bulk* of these patches are already in what will be the 4.4.0-alpha branch at https://sourceforge.net/p/xymon/code/HEAD/tree/branches/4.x-master/ I'm currently catching myself back up on the TODOs and pending merges for 4.4. There's a lot to unwind. -jc

Hello, The EL9, Fedora 38, 37, and 36 (and 35) Terabithia packages have been promoted to the production yum repos and are live at https://terabithia.org/rpms/xymon/ Please let me know if you notice any issues. While updating the repositories, I noticed that the sample yum .repo files had the /testing/ repos enabled by default as well as the production ones. I've updated them to disable the /testing/ repo by default, which seems like it should have been the case all along. Users may want to verify the enabled/disabled yum repo state if this file was downloaded directly. Additionally, an Amazon Linux (amzn2) package was built quite a while back but never publicized. It is now in the testing repo of its own, with a corresponding yum repo file at https://terabithia.org/rpms/xymon/terabithia-xymon-amzn.repo Regards, -jc
