passenger 6.0.21 will not install on AlmaLinux 9 / RHEL 9 about passenger HOT 8 CLOSED

Release is out.

from passenger.

That's odd, previously rocky was a much better match for RHEL than Alma was, that's why we chose to build our packages there. I'll look at filing a bug report with rocky, they should be on the same version as rhel.

Not sure what you mean here. We've always had 100% RHEL compatibility at AlmaLinux.

It seems that there's a vulnerability in the package and the version had to be bumped? https://errata.rockylinux.org/RLBA-2024:2402 the matching RHEL errata isn't public yet but I imagine it will be bumped soon too.

It is public https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2024:2402.
But with version 38.1.35-2.el9_4.

Strange I had tried to visit that URL when I made my comment and it 404'd.

For example, alma used subkeys to sign repos or packages or something early on, which wasn't what RHEL did. That made it not work as a substitute for CentOS when we switched over, because our package building host didn't understand them, and mock failed to setup the package building chroots.

Anyway rocky has fixed the macro, so we'll rebuild our packages and this will be fixed.

I've tested the rebuilt packages in an alma vm and they install fine, will make a release soon.
