“CERN Renounces RHEL in Favor of Debian for Its Accelerator Controls Infrastructure”
Well, nope. They are dropping CentOS, (free) not RHEL (costs $).

IBM's Red Hat and Canonical's Snap both earned the anger they get.
I still run RHEL and Ubuntu at work. Arch at home, Debian in the lab.
Letting a vendor grudge pick your skill set isn't principle — it's cutting off your own career to spite a logo.
apt vs dnf vs pacman is a shell-prompt argument, not an architecture one.
Run what you love at home. Support what's on the floor at work.

Das #Cern spart fast 6 Millionen Euro durch Umstieg von #RHEL auf #Debian, um veraltete Hardware weiterzuverwenden. RHEL 9 und 10 erfordern neue Hardware, die das Cern vermeiden will. Die Umstellung auf Debian 15 ist bis 2030 geplant, aktuell läuft Debian 12. https://www.golem.de/news/statt-rhel-cern-spart-mit-umstieg-auf-debian-fast-6-millionen-euro-2609-212624.html

#CERN Transitioning To #Debian After Being A Longtime #RHEL Institution
CERN formally even co-maintained the #ScientificLinux RHEL derivative
CERN engineers had considered moving to #CentOSStream as a more natural pathway but ultimately they say "the straw that broke the camel's back" to abandon Red Hat Enterprise #Linux was the "-march=x86-64-v2" compiler flag default as "forced obsolescence" for old hardware.

CERN is dropping #RHEL for #Debian. All 2200+ systems by the end of the year.
The reason being is that the "-march=x86-64-v2" compiler flag default as "forced obsolescence" for old hardware.
It's not without headaches, mostly due to "the lack of standard tooling for automated building and publishing of packages - a lot of gaps in the official tooling. There are also a number of tools not supporting multiple versions of the same packages."

In #melbourne for #redhat #summitconnect tomorrow. Presenting on #rhel and what we have evolved the platform around since the 10 release last year to meet the challenges we are seeing the larger FLOSS ecosystem and where our clients need support. Inevitably that means refining delivery and operational models to meet the velocity problem head on.

Yaay 8:30 meeting got cut short since we didnt have much to talk about. So what am I doing with my new fount 25-ish minutes? Working on a CFP submission for @BSidesDE !
Who wants to get hands on with bootc (on an enterprise class linux no less, RHEL), and learn how you can manage your OS like a container? What security benefits are there? Well you could find out!
Anyway, wish me luck!

Infinito.Nexus 12.0: From a Single Server to a Scalable Sovereign Cloud
Infinito.Nexus 12.0 is one of the most significant releases in the project’s history. Until now, Infinito.Nexus focused primarily on automating complete open-source environments on a single Docker Compose host. Version 12.0 introduces Docker Swarm as a second deployment mode, enabling applications to run across multiple servers, scale horizontally and recover from node failures. This release combines capabilities that are rarely delivered by one automation platform: More than 75 automatically deployable open-source applications One Single Sign-On experience backed by a unified user database Horizontal scaling across multiple cloud servers Automated backup and continuously tested disaster recovery Support across Debian, Arch Linux and RHEL-family distributions Filesystem-independent operation across ext4, btrfs and ZFS Together, these changes transform Infinito.Nexus from an application installer into a comprehensive foundation for scalable, sovereign cloud infrastructure.

Ansible is easy to install. A sane, reproducible development environment takes more thought.
My downstream-first setup uses RHEL 10.2, Podman, VS Code Dev Containers, and Red Hat-packaged Ansible Development Tools, while keeping the boundaries between upstream projects, downstream products, development containers, and production Execution Environments explicit.

#TechTipThursday: find out if your Linux box actually needs a reboot.
After a round of updates the guessing game is always the same. Do I need to reboot, or can I keep working? On Fedora and RHEL based systems, stop guessing:
needs-restarting -r
It checks whether the kernel or core libraries changed and tells you straight up whether a reboot is required. It lives in the dnf-utils package, so install that first if you don't have it.

New episode of the Fedora Podcast is up: What is EPEL?
Noah and Eric sit down with Carl George @carlwgeorge who leads the EPEL team at Red Hat, to cover what EPEL actually is, the golden rule behind its reputation, and the changes he's proposing for EPEL 11. If you run enterprise Linux, this one's for you.

If given the choice of RHCSA Rapid Track or RHSA I (?) and II first with these results on the self evaluation, are there Red Hat people out there who could provide guidance?
My employer is paying, but I want to set myself up for success and not waste time. Thoughts?

@not3ottersinacoat Huge #LunuxMint fan! Spent decades using and supporting #RHEL and variants on supercomputers, but for personal use, it’s been Mint for nearly two decades. 😎👍

Dear @redhat,
I miss you and I'm pretty sure you miss me!
I miss the community, the mission, and honestly the work. You miss having someone who can explain #RHEL to a kernel engineer and a VP of Infrastructure in the same breath without breaking a sweat.
What do you say? Let's talk.

What on earth has happened to the
emacs-nw(formeremacs-nox) packaging!?On Alma Linux 10.2 (RHEL clone) it pulls in
gccandgit-core,makeandkernel-headers,pkgconfig- which again pulls in tons of Perl packages. On top of that there are weak dependencies such asgcc-c++.This needs to be cleaned up!
