I successfully updated by using "dnf update --nobest", but some of the packages have not been updated to a new verison.. But Carbonio runs..

Do you have any idea when RHEL9 support will be GA? RHEL8 is now end-of-production and into maintenance support and RHEL10 is just around the corner?

Hi,

I agree with you. Testings regarding RHEL9 are still ongoing. Therefore, I would request users not to use RHEL9 until it is cleared by the devs. Besides the agreement, I will forward this to the devs so that in future all repos should have their respective packages.

Regards,

I understand that RHEL9 support is in BETA.. but I have been running it for soon a year, and have had only minor issues (including upgrades)..

This still doesn't change the fact that a RHEL8 package is in the RHEL9 repo:

# dnf search --showduplicates carbonio-files

Hi,

But Carbonio CE (As of 24.12.0) packages for RHEL9 are still in BETA so even if you have managed to install it you should not try to upgrade it. If you try to deploy/upgrade CE in RHEL9 you will face many unforeseen issues.

And always take look at official documentation before installation/Up-gradation:

https://docs.zextras.com/carbonio-ce/html/install/requirements.html#software-requirements-for-a-node

Hi guys

When trying to upgrade from 24.9.1 to 24.12.0 on RHEL9, I'm faced with the following error:

# dnf upgrade --best --allowerasing
Error:
Problem: problem with installed package carbonio-files-ce-0.13.2-1.x86_64
- cannot install the best update candidate for package carbonio-files-ce-0.13.2-1.x86_64
- nothing provides python38 needed by carbonio-files-ce-0.14.4-1.el8.x86_64 from zextras
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages)

# cat /etc/yum.repos.d/carbonio.repo

name=zextras
baseurl=https://repo.zextras.io/release/rhel9
enabled=1
repo_gpgcheck=1
gpgcheck=0
gpgkey=https://repo.zextras.io/repomd.xml.key

Seems like there are some EL8 packages in the EL9 repo?
