Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 released
Wrote this comment a while ago for anyone wondering about this:<p>Just installed it in a VM, changes that jumped out at me:<p>• No Python (that you should develop against) installed out of the box. There&#x27;s a &#x2F;usr&#x2F;libexec&#x2F;platform-python (3.6) that yum (dnf) runs against, and then python2&#x2F;python3 packages you can optionally install if you want to run python scripts.<p>• Kernel 4.18<p>• No more ntpd, chrony only<p>• &#x2F;etc&#x2F;sysconfig&#x2F;network-scripts is a ghost town, save for a lonely ifcfg file for my network adapter. No more &#x2F;etc&#x2F;init.d&#x2F;network, so &#x2F;etc&#x2F;init.d is finally cleaned out. It looks like static routes still go in route-&lt;adapter&gt; and you ifdown&#x2F;ifup to pull those in (it calls nmcli).<p>• Pretty colors when running dmesg!
