The first beta version of
Scientific
Linux 6.3 is available now, a distribution built from source packages of
Red Hat
Enterprise Linux and enhanced with extra applications useful in academic
environments: "
There should be no expectation that a
'yum' upgrade to SL 6.3 will work.
A new install is the recommended method to move from 'sl6rolling'(this
alpha release) and the released 'SL 6.3'. Major changes the upstream
vendor made: LibreOffice - OpenOffice.org has been replaced with
LibreOffice. The LibreOffice packages 'provide' the right packages to
maintain compatibility for Kickstart and yum installs; Anaconda -
Anaconda now alerts users to the beta status of a release when it is
tagged appropriately, upstream has added this functionality and we are
taking advantage of it for the beta cycle...." Read the full
release announcement.
