[CentOS-announce] Announcing release for nginx 1.6 and 1.8 on CentOS Linux 7 x86_64 SCL

I am pleased to announce the immediate availability of versions 1.6 and
1.8 of the nginx HTTP and reverse proxy server on CentOS Linux 7 x86_64,
delivered via a Software Collection (SCL) built by the SCLo Special
Interest Group (https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/SCLo).

QuickStart
----------
You can get started in three easy steps:
$ sudo yum install centos-release-scl
$ sudo yum install rh-nginx18
$ scl enable rh-nginx18 bash

At this point you should be able to use nginx just as a normal
application. An example of commands run might be:
$ nginx -v
$ systemctl start rh-nginx18-nginx

In order to view the individual components included in this collection,
including additional subpackages, you can run:
$ sudo yum list rh-nginx18\*

About Software Collections
--------------------------
Software Collections give you the power to build, install, and use
multiple versions of software on the same system, without affecting
system-wide installed packages. Each collection is delivered as a group
of RPMs, with the grouping being done using the name of the collection
as a prefix of all packages that are part of the software collection.

The collection nginx16 and rh-nginx18 deliver versions 1.6 and 1.8 of
the nginx, an HTTP and reverse proxy server with a focus on high
concurrency, performance and low memory usage. The collection nginx16
delivers a daemon called nginx16-nginx and the collection rh-nginx18
delivers a daemon called rh-nginx18-nginx.

For more on the nginx, see http://nginx.org.

The SCLo SIG in CentOS
----------------------
The Software Collections SIG group is an open community group
co-ordinating the development of the SCL technology, and helping curate
a reference set of collections. In addition to the nginx collections
being released here, we also build and deliver other databases, web
servers, and language stacks including multiple versions of PostgreSQL,
MariaDB, Apache HTTP Server, NodeJS, Ruby, Python and others.

Software Collections SIG release was announced at
https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2015-October/021446.html

You can learn more about Software Collections concepts at:
http://softwarecollections.org
You can find information on the SIG at
https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/SCLo ; this includes howto
get involved and help with the effort.

We meet every second Wednesday at 16:00 UTC in #centos-devel (ref:
https://www.centos.org/community/calendar), for an informal open forum
open to anyone who might have comments, concerns or wants to get started
with SCL's in CentOS.

Enjoy!

[CentOS-announce] Announcing release for Phusion Passenger 4.0 on CentOS Linux 6 x86_64 SCL

I am pleased to announce the immediate availability of Phusion
Passenger in version 4.0 on CentOS Linux 6 x86_64, delivered via a
Software Collection (SCL) built by the SCLo Special Interest Group
(https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/SCLo).

QuickStart
----------
You can get started in three easy steps:
$ sudo yum install centos-release-scl
$ sudo yum install rh-passenger40 rh-passenger40-ruby22 nginx16
$ scl enable rh-passenger40 rh-ruby22 bash

At this point you should be able to use passenger just as a normal
application. An examples of commands run might be:
$ passenger start
$ passenger status

In order to view the individual components included in this collection,
including other packages that allow you to use passenger with Ruby 2.0
or 1.9.3, instead of 2.2 as in example above, you can run:
$ sudo yum list rh-passenger40\*

The rh-passenger40 collection relies either on the rh-ruby22, ruby200 or
ruby193 collection and the nginx16 collection, so you need to install
one of the following packages: rh-passenger40-ruby193,
rh-passenger40-ruby200, or rh-passenger40-ruby22.

About Software Collections
--------------------------
Software Collections give you the power to build, install, and use
multiple versions of software on the same system, without affecting
system-wide installed packages. Each collection is delivered as a group
of RPMs, with the grouping being done using the name of the collection
as a prefix of all packages that are part of the software collection.

The collection rh-passenger40 delivers Phusion Passenger, a web and
application server designed to be fast, robust and lightweight. The
rh-passenger40 Software Collection can also be used with Apache HTTP
Server from the httpd24 Software Collection. To do so, install the
rh-passenger40-mod_passenger package.

For more on the Phusion Passenger, see https://www.phusionpassenger.com.

F24 System Wide Change: GCC6

= Proposed System Wide Change: GCC6 =
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/GCC6

Change owner(s):
* Jakub Jelínek < jakub AT redhat DOT com >

Switch GCC in Fedora 24 to 6.x.y, rebuild all packages with it, or
optionally rebuild just some packages with it and rebuild all packages
only in Fedora 25.

== Detailed Description ==
GCC 6 is currently in stage3, will move to stage4 around mid January,
in prerelease state with only regression bugfixes and documentation
fixes allowed. The release will happen probably in the middle of
April. We are working on scratch gcc rpms and will perform a test mass
rebuild.

== Scope ==
All packages should be rebuilt with the new gcc once it hits f24, or,
if there is not enough time for that, just all packages built after
the new gcc hits the buildroots.

Proposal owners:
* Build gcc in f24, rebuild packages that have direct dependencies on
exact gcc version (libtool, llvm, gcc-python-plugin, odb).

Other developers:
* First few days/weeks just voluntary rebuilds using the new system
gcc, if things fail, look at http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-6/porting_to.html
and fix bugs in packages or, if there is a gcc bug or suspected gcc
bug, analyze and report.

Release engineering:
* Organize a mass rebuild, either in f24 or in f25

Policies and guidelines:
* No policies need to be changed

The SCLo SIG in CentOS
----------------------
The Software Collections SIG group is an open community group
co-ordinating the development of the SCL technology, and helping curate
a reference set of collections. In addition to the MariaDB collections
being released here, we also build and deliver other databases, web
servers, and language stacks including multiple versions of MySQL,
PostgreSQL, MongoDB Apache HTTP Server, NodeJS, Ruby, Python and others.

Software Collections SIG release was announced at
https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2015-October/021446.html

You can learn more about Software Collections concepts at:
http://softwarecollections.org
You can find information on the SIG at
https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/SCLo ; this includes howto
get involved and help with the effort.

We meet every second Wednesday at 16:00 UTC in #centos-devel (ref:
https://www.centos.org/community/calendar), for an informal open forum
open to anyone who might have comments, concerns or wants to get started
with SCL's in CentOS.

Enjoy!
