Re: [HTCondor-users] Odd behavior of condor_master in SL7

[Thomas Patrick Downes <downes@xxxxxxx>]

I do not hesitate to point out to people the following:

âDuring the life cycle of a major release, Red Hat makes commercially reasonable efforts to maintain binary compatibility for the core runtime environment across all minor releases and errata advisoriesâ

This is a commonly-used legal term that I understand to more or less mean, âweâll do it unless we lose money on it.â This is a perfectly reasonable approach to take, but people treat RHELâs ABI promises as having value in and of itself, while RedHat, when it comes down to it, doesnât.

    I have to say, between RedHat breaking kernel ABI on every point release
    in 7 series (kills zfs) and systemd exorcising all my daemon (kills nfs
    cluster failovers among other things), freebsd is looking better and
    better every day... and it can run docker apparently, too, for all those
    GNapps we all can't live without.
