Scientific Linux 6.5 发布,重新编译的Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Scientific Linux是重新编译的Red Hat Enterprise Linux,由费米国家加速器实验室和欧洲核研究组织(CERN)共同开发。尽管它旨在与Red Hat Enterprise Linux完全兼容,它也提供了上游产品中未收入的额外软件包,这当中最值得一提的是各种文件系统,包括Cluster Suite和Global File System(GFS)、FUSE、OpenAFS、Squashfs、Unionfs,以及对Intel无线固件的无线网络支持、MadWiFi和NDISwrapper、Sun Java及Java Development Kit(JDK)、轻量级的IceWM窗口管理器、面向统计计算的R语言环境,以及Alpine邮件客户端。
Connie Sieh has announced the release of Scientific Linux 6.5, a distribution built from source package for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.5 with extra software designed for use in scientific and academic environments: " Scientific Linux 6.5 is officially released for i686/x86_64. As a reminder, the SL6x repository always points to the most recent release. The SL6x repository has been updated to SL6.5 at this time. Users of the Scientific Linux 6x repository should run 'yum clean expire-cache'. This should allow yum to notice the updated metadata within the 6x repository. Major differences from Scientific Linux 6.4: OpenAFS has been updated to version 1.6.5.1 from openafs.org - this package may have some issues, please note there is a possibility for system panic under certain conditions; alpine 2.10 - updated to more recent version (from Fedora); yum-autoupdate-2 6.3 - bug fixes for extra, useless reporting, remove the obsolete augeas lense."
