Rocky Linux 9.3 Released


Rocky Linux is a community enterprise operating system designed to be 100% bug-for-bug compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux. It is available for the x86_64 and AArch64 processor architectures.

Louis Abel has announced the release of Rocky Linux 9.3, the latest stable version from a project that develops a community clone of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Breaking Changes

Azure images for Rocky Linux 9.3 will be published under a new publisher name: resf, instead of the previous long, unreadable name. These images are not published yet, but should be available by the end of the week and will be accompanied by another news post.

The optional guest-agents group, previously available within both the Minimal Install and Custom Operating System base environments in anaconda, is no-longer available for selection as additional software for those environments. Consult release notes for more details.

The KDE live image for Rocky Linux 9.3 had problems during the testing phase. For this, we will be providing the older 9.2 images until we can build and provide a working image.

Highlights

Notable New Features and Changes

The 9.3 release brings back cloud and container images for ppc64le that were not released with 9.2 due to issues with QEMU. These images may be divergent from the other architecture’s images in some small ways, but we will work to reduce this delta in future releases of the images.

The kernel-rt package has been merged into a subpackage of kernel

A new kernel-uki package was introduced as a Technology Preview, providing a Unified Kernel Image variant for booting. This UKI image is signed with its own SecureBoot key.

java-21-openjdk was introduced providing a new version of Java
