Description
Rocky Linux 9.5 has been released Nov 19.
RL9's default repo setting (
/etc/yum.repos.d/rocky.repo
) usesmirrorlist
(e.g.,mirrorlist=https://mirrors.rockylinux.org/mirrorlist?arch=$basearch&repo=AppStream-$releasever$rltype
) to fetch packages, and themirrorlist
will automatically use the RL9.5 repo even when the GCE image is still on 9.4.This is fine for most packages, but CUDA requires the exact version of kernel-devel package (the version that match the OS kernel version). RL9.4's kernel-devel won't exist in RL9.5 repo.
Fix:
When GCE builds a new RL9.5 image, the driver issue will be resolved. To fix the issue right now and prevent it from happening again, add a new repo that matches the OS version.
