The nbdkit rpms
nbdkit has been added to RHEL 7.6. For this reason we expect that nbdkit will be removed from EPEL (since it will be added to base CentOS 7.6 instead). However owing to a screw up, the version in RHEL 7.6 had a lower NVR than EPEL 7.5, but also more features (especially including the new VDDK plugin, which is required when running oVirt on CentOS 7). For this reason this commit includes all the new features from RHEL 7.6. RHEL 7.6 will still have a lower NVR than this package -- there's nothing we can do about that -- but at least there are no missing features now. You can stay on the EPEL 7 package and nothing bad will happen. Or if you prefer you can manually downgrade to the RHEL 7.6 nbdkit package. There will be no difference. Note that in RHEL 7.7 we intend to rebase nbdkit again which will cleanly fix this (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1621894). This includes the following commits from RHEL 7.6: Enable VDDK plugin and remove the spec file distributed with the SRPM. Small refactorings in the spec file. (cherry picked from commit |
