Back in October 2024 AlmaLinux OS Foundation officially introduced AlmaLinux OS Kitten 10. It is designed as a development-focused distribution of AlmaLinux OS, and a stable preview of AlmaLinux OS 10. Today we’re excited to share the latest updates in this project!
Updated packages and ISOs
Recently, the CentOS Stream 10 undertook a significant mass package rebuild to update the compiler keys used for PowerPC (ppc64le) compilation. We have also rebuilt all packages to align with these critical changes.
As promised, we have also released our quarterly ISO rebuilds! They are available for download today, and bring updates including Linux kernel 6.12 and updates to Qt packages, which make AlmaLinux OS Kitten 10 version compatible with the KDE desktop environment from the EPEL repo.
Cloud and Container Options
Another important update is that along with the standard ISO releases, AlmaLinux OS Kitten 10 now includes Cloud and Container images:
Container
Cloud
- Amazon Web Services (AWS) - available via AWS Marketplace and the Community AMIs.
- Generic Cloud
- Microsoft Azure
- OpenNebula
Vagrant Boxes
- AlmaLinux OS Kitten images are available on the HCP Vagrant Registry.
You can get more information about AlmaLinux OS Kitten 10 installation options on the AlmaLinux OS Kitten Wiki Page.
