标题: Scientific Linux停止开发了,嗅到了阴谋的味道
昨天看到了社长吐槽CentOS 8的帖子,突然想起来Redhat系还有一个Scientific Linux。想着CERN和Fermilab这样的名门正派应该比纯社区靠谱点,以前还用过一段时间,除了软件源比较少外没什么明显缺点。结果去主页一看,发现了这个声明:https://listserv.fnal.gov/scripts/wa.exe?A2=SCIENTIFIC-LINUX-ANNOUNCE;11d6001.1904

Scientific Linux is driven by Fermilab's scientific mission and focused
on the changing needs of experimental facilities.

Fermilab is looking ahead to DUNE[1] and other future international
collaborations. One part of this is unifying our computing platform with
collaborating labs and institutions.

Toward that end, we will deploy CentOS 8 in our scientific computing
environments rather than develop Scientific Linux 8. We will
collaborate with CERN and other labs to help make CentOS an even better
platform for high-energy physics computing.


Fermilab will continue to support Scientific Linux 6 and 7 through the
remainder of their respective lifecycles. Thank you to all who have
contributed to Scientific Linux and who continue to do so.

简言之就是不会再有Scientific Linux 8了。联想到CentOS已被招安,红帽本身也被收购,突然嗅到了一股阴谋的味道。

看来要考虑换Debian或者openSuSE了,不过这两个发行版支持周期短,是个令人头疼的问题。

opensuse不错的,对生手来说比红帽系简单。我这四台小机组,一直用openSUSE,还运行kde的,也快4年了

十年前学校服务器装的就是Scientific Linux,印象不好。感觉这东西更新慢,各种库的版本太老(有些晚了五年,个别十年以上),导致很多强烈依赖库版本的软件装不了

啥阴谋,没人用就慢慢停止更新了
