Yes .. it should be on mirror.centos.org now .. you could change the
repo where your updates come from. OR .. wait for that mirror to get
updated.
I just did
yum clean all
yum update
and 15-8 showed up. Maybe the 'clean all' did it, or maybe just showed up.
I applied the update (yum update), rebooted and...
no boot. Just a blank screen.
Hardware is a Mac-Mini :-(
This is not an essential machine, so I could
re-install (from netinstall) if you think it's worth the effort.
Or what?
David
