| Summary | 0017921: Codename "Core" dropped from release version | ||||
| Description | Before CentOS 8.3.2011, the release always included a codename. For CentOS 8.2 and below, this was "Core": [root@centos-8.2 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS Linux release 8.2.2004 (Core) After upgrading to CentOS 8.3.2011, this codename has been dropped: [root@centos-8.3 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS Linux release 8.3.2011 lsb_release and other tools also no longer provide this information. In case of lsb_release, the codename is reported as "n/a": [root@centos-8.3 ~]# lsb_release -c Codename: n/a I am not sure about the impact, I hope scripts etc. do not rely on this missing piece of information. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | 1. Install CentOS 8.3 or upgrade from CentOS 8.2 2. Codename is no longer present in /etc/redhat-release | ||||
