p.s. can someone tell in as short as possible what this CentOS Stream is
in comparison to CentOS 8?
CentOS Stream is built from the currently released RHEL Source Code + 0.1
So if RHEL 8.3 is released .. Stream is the Source Code (built) that
will become 8.4 in a few months.
what does this mean in comparison to CentOS 8, which sources are used
for this?
to be concrete:
I can download this ISO of CentOS 8
(1) CentOS-8.3.2011-x86_64-dvd1.iso
and this ISO fo CentOS Stream
(2) CentOS-Stream-8-x86_64-20201203-dvd1.iso
which sources are used for (1) and which for (2)?
and what does it mean of the update process be 'yum update'
e.g. if one would do this with CentOS 6, there is no way; the support
ended;
with CentOS 8 this will haben one day (somewhat in 2029), and what is
said about this of CentOS Stream?
CentOS Linux 8 is the source code from released current RHEL 8 .. for
now 8.3. The EOL of CentOS Linux 8 is 31 DEC 2021
CentOS Stream 8 is the source cdoe from what be RHEL + 0.1 .. so
currently 8.3 + 0.1 = 8.4. It will EOL in 31 MAY 2024
CentOS Linux 6 EOLed 30 NOV 2020.
A related question: Since Stream 8 will EoL in MAY 2024, when RHEL 8 will enter the 5-year-Maintenance Support phase,
in which way will the sources of the updates released for RHEL 8 (modifications / patches of Open Source codes) be released?
Will these still go to git.centos.org, or on a new, to-be-created platform?
Cheers,
Oliver
