Hello,
actually i can't provision new repliacs due to this on Centos 8.1:
https://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=16929
it seems that the ipa package was compiled against an old samba version
but this samba in version 4.9.1 seems to be now removed from the
mirrors
dnf install samba-4.9.1
Failed to set locale, defaulting to C.UTF-8
Last metadata expiration check: 0:04:52 ago on Tue May 5 10:54:57 2020.
No match for argument: samba-4.9.1
Error: Unable to find a match: samba-4.9.1
so i tried to download the samba-4.9.1.rpm from here to manually install it,
https://koji.mbox.centos.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=460
but no success because of 403 forbidden ..
maybe i should better write this mail to a centos 8 mailing list but i
thought i will try first here, because freeipa is the affected tool ..
We know about that issue and commented multiple times in the bug and on
the centos mailing lists for almost 4 months now.
We (FreeIPA developers) have no control over CentOS builds and cannot
help with that at all. We've got a promise that the packages will get
rebuilt, this was promised in January but never done and no response
since that time.
does somebody maybe know another workaround for this?
The only suggestion that worked for people in the bug was to downgrade
samba packages, with 'dnf downgrade samba'. If that doesn't work
anymore, then please avoid using CentOS 8.1 for FreeIPA.
