CentOS Linux lives on in the new AlmaLinux 9 – ZDNet

CentOS0 CommentsCentOSRSS Feeds

If you knew your way around Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) not so long ago, but you didn't want to pay Red Hat's support fees, you'd run CentOS Linux, an RHEL clone. Then Red Hat decided in 2020 that they'd no longer release CentOS Linux as a standalone distribution. Instead, CentOS Stream would work as a beta for RHEL. The competition immediately sprang up to replace CentOS. The two most important of these are the AlmaLinux OS Foundation's AlmaLinux and Rocky Enterprise Software Foundation's (RESF) Rocky Linux. Now, mere weeks after the release of RHEL 9, AlmaLinux 9 has arrived. Like RHEL itself, AlmaLinux 9…

AlmaLinux leader says Red Hat code crackdown isn’t a threat – SiliconANGLE News

AlmaLinux0 CommentsAlmaLinuxRSS Feeds

Red Hat Inc.’s announcement last month that it would impose restrictions on the availability of source code for its Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating system created a stir among developers and Linux users who have relied on no-cost alternatives AlmaLinux and Rocky Linux, which were built to be “bug-for-bug compatible” with RHEL. Red Hat’s decision means clones can no longer promise that they will run software written for the latest release of RHEL, because Red Hat’s new restrictions allow source code only for paying customers or developers who agree not to redistribute it. Previously the code had been available to…
