Moving to 7.5 should be considered as part of the upcoming release, but retirement of existing patches needs to be part of that plan.

What if we move to the latest 7.5 1804?

Do you see any drawbacks or hard dependencies still on old packages?

Regards,

StarlingX should be based on Centos 7.4 for the vast majority of packages.  I think there are a dozen that have made the move to 7.5.  There are also a few that we blacklisted and are pulling from earlier releases.

I'll attach my black_list notes as they exist today.  I'll have to audit them to make sure my notes are up to date.

Hi all,

The StarlingX.repo file in stx-tools has all the CentOS 7.4.1708 binary repos disabled and is instead using 7.3.1611. This would likely explain why some of the specified RPMs cannot be downloaded via yum, as they were upversioned in 7.4.

Was this done for a particular reason, or is it a configuration error?
