5.8.2 Missing from nagios-base repository

Post by p4ben »

I'm running CentOS 8. Nagios says there's an available upgrade, but I'm seeing the following in the upgrade log.

Code: Select all

---- Starting Nagios XI Upgrade ----
Cleaning up temp directory...
RPM Install detected, switching to yum update

Dependencies resolved.
Nothing to do.
Complete!
I did some digging and it looks like the package available in the nagios-base repo is still 5.8.1. Am I missing something?

Yes, you are correct. The RPM's are not built for 5.8.2 yet. It's a manual process and our engineering team hasn't made it a priority.
If you didn't get an 8% raise over the course of the pandemic, you took a pay cut.

Discussion of wages is protected speech under the National Labor Relations Act, and no employer can tell you you can't disclose your pay with your fellow employees.

Thanks for the reply. It's a little odd that we're prompted in the web interface for an update we can't actually apply. Is there an expected date for publishing the RPMs?

I asked my team about it and they said the RPM's were built (manually mind you), but weren't moved to the correct directory on our repo server. They moved the files to the correct directory. Nagios XI 5.8.2 should be available in the Cent8 repo now.

I guess that's what we get for not automating this process. :-)
